Hari Raya Aidilfitri in Malaysia brings many happy memories visiting friends in their homes and enjoying ‘lemang-with chicken rendang or-beef rendang’ - which I always felt to be one of the most delectable festive food in the country. I’ve had the special food in different parts of the country and they all sing the same tune - Delicious.
Chicken Rendang and Beef Rendang are available everywhere at all times, but when it’s accompanied with lemang (usually cooked during festival) - glutinous rice, coconut milk and salt - wrapped with banana leaf and cooked in a bamboo stick over charcoal fire - it’s lips-smacking savory.
Tomorrow (21 March 2026) Malaysian Muslims will celebrate Hari Raya Aidilfitri (Eid Al-Fitr) after having fast for 30 days.
Hours of bubbling simmer turns chicken or beef protein soft and tender, taking on an intense aromatics of coconut, chilli, and spices, and in the process the coconut milk dissolves into a nutty, buttery sweetness - ‘the best food in the world’.
During the Open-House function usually held during this Hari Raya Aidilfitri festivity, lemang will surely be served to the guest who visit these homes. - mk
