What is nasi kukus?

"Kukus" means steamed, and that makes all the difference.

Steaming keeps every grain soft, fluffy and fragrant, so the rice soaks up the curry without ever turning mushy. Top it with crispy fried chicken, ladle over rich curry, add a dab of fiery sambal, and you have one of Malaysia's best-loved comfort meals. Where nasi lemak is cooked in coconut milk, nasi kukus stays light and lets the curry shine. Curious how the two compare? Read nasi kukus vs nasi lemak.

  • Soft, fluffy steamed riceLight and fragrant, made to soak up every drop of curry.
  • Crispy, golden chickenSpiced, fried to a crunch and juicy inside.
  • Rich curry and fiery sambalPoured generously, with just the right kick of heat.
