Hi Ivana and Steve, My wife and I have been following you since your video in Argentina. We are originally from Indonesia but migrated to USA thirty years ago. Just recently we decide to start our retirement early and travel thru out latin america. I am now in Buenos Aires, and your videos have helped us greatly. Just want to say "terima kasih banyak" I hope to that our path crossed somewhere in the future. Malaysia is next on my list !
For the sambal kicap, even people from the other state felt weird when they ate it for the first time. But we johorean obsessed with it. We put sambal kicap almost on anything 🤣
Soya sauce added with cili padi and lime juice 😋
ahahah yes many Malaysians actually mock it 😂when I first moved to Johor it was weird but it's tasty
I always wonder who is the first person that decides to dip his fried banana into sambal kicap and manage to convince others that it is good
LOL This is a great point
It's maybe way back beyond 1970 because back then I ate it this way..
no need convincing. it gooooooooooddddddddddddd. now can get it at the shops. the Enag brand. sambal kicap pisang goreng
Javanese ..johor
it is good if the sambal kicap is thick and spicy. If not, it sucks
Ahh i miss Johor pisang goreng sambal kicap, i used to study there, I'm from Kedah,Malaysia 😊❤️👍🇲🇾
Senang je buat sambal kicap,cili,bawang putih,blend..letak kicap manis pastu sikit garam..nk masak pon boleh..xmasak pon boleh.
Same. UTM alumnus here. It was so weird the first time seeing my Johorean friends eat goreng pisang with sambal kicap.
The soy sauce is actually we call SAMBAL KICAP.
Small chili or chili padi + garlic + limau kasturi+ sugar.. blend them together
But usually in Johor.. we don’t like to waste food.. So we dip many food with the left over asam pedas.. masak lemak chili padi , sambal tumis…
And you must know to dip the sweet food into the spicy sauce will bring the contras taste and yummy. Try it
If we are in Malaysia, we will see food from outside, such as Thai, Singaporean, and Indonesian food, but when it comes to their country, it is very difficult for us to see the word Malaysian food.
Wow kuddos to steve..he is right when he said i can taste the garlic in the soy sauce..some might also put vinegar or lime to enhance the flavor..i like ivana..she's never really fussy about food & will just eat anything 👏🏼
Sambal kicap johor style: soysauce + chillies + garlic + vinegar/lime juice + sugar + salt. Its so good..
I thought I tasted garlic!! I knew it :D
@@JetLagWarriors you can now trust your tastebud.. 👍🏻. Try botok- botok then.. very special tradisional dish of johor. I bet steve will not like it even the taste like rendang because it is a fish base dish.. 🫣
I love pisang kepuk as pisang goreng and eat with sambal kicap. The sambal kicap ingredients are garlic, chilli, soy sauce and sugar. Some would add lime juice a bit. I love a thicker version of the sauce by adding more garlic.
0:16 - the Laksam is from Terengganu/Kelantan. See if you can find Singapore Laksa - if you can't find it here there's always Secret Recipe.. 🤣 If you pop over to Singapore be sure to visit Arab Street - that's where the three famous Singapore Murtabak restaurants are. As far as murtabak in Indonesia - the only one I tried was from a stall by the side of the road in Bandung - and I must say it wasn't great. First of all it was deep fried in oil - they use a shallow wok rather than a flat plate (I see this in Thailand, too, at the Ro Tee stalls). While it was cooking the cook was splashing hot oil on it, and when it was done he turned it on its side and a bunch of oil poured out. It was the oiliest food I'd ever eaten and it really did a job on my insides, I must say. That was the last time I tried murtabak in Indonesia. I noticed people frying murtabak the same way elsewhere - in Palembang and Jakarta. I remember seeing five or six murtabak floating in a pool of oil at one place. Something I found amusing - I was in Tawau (east coast of Sabah, near Semporna), and at the Pasar Malam someone was selling "Murtabak Jawa". But they weren't deep-frying it so it couldn't have been authentic. 😁
You guys should come Batu Pahat... There are some very authentic johor foods in Batu Pahat..
beriani gam, mee racun gearbox, lontong goreng😆😆😆
Goreng Pisang + Sambal Kicap.
Best in the world.
Johor style. 🔵🔴
Yeah sambal kicap is like THE dipping sauce for johor people. I dip everything in it. Steve is right sambal kicap usually sweet soy sauce, birds eye chilli , garlic and sugar.
how i made sambal kicap
1. chillies (segenggam)
2. garlic (1 or 2)
3. sugar ( ikut tahap kepedasan yang kita nak)
4. soy sauce (kicap jalen)
- blend all the ingredient together or tumbuk lagi sedap
- usually homemade sambal kicap for pisang goreng will be more thick (pekat/likat) compare to the stall sambal kicap

Yes, that's right. Johor has the most unique food where they are not available in other states. Johoreans mostly eat their laksa with hands....maybe it's because there isn't much broth. Anyway, it's great that you guys also tried murtabak Singapura and pisang goreng with sambal kicap. Good review and glad to know you both loved the food except the laksa which Steve didn't quite like. Cheers, Steve lvana.
johor style dip the pisang goreng with special soy sauce.other state not dip with it.some use chili sauce.both respect each other.
actually in johor people eat on afternoon like teatime..
sambal kicap/ soy sauce sambal
recipe:-
-20 biji lada kecil vietnam (merah)
-5 ulas bawang putih
-1 sudu teh ajinamoto
-30 sudu besar kicap lemak manis brand (jalen)
-sedikit air
blend all together.done
Any fritters (from yam, breadfruit to sweet potato) go well with that sambal soy sauce, including fried tofu and tempe goreng. We also add it into soup like bihun soup, mee soup
You should try Johor Tempe goreng with hot spicy black soya sauce pedas.
Pisang Nangka goreng
They put belacan paste plus chilli padi into the hot spicy soya sauce.
Enjoy your meals. 😅
I like Pisang Tanduk as pisang goreng.. its desert! Can put crystal sugar or condense milk , to go wild, dust with Milo powder😅
Next Lontong kering (at pokok cerry nasi lemak)and lontong kuah (at onn kitchen)
Aaayyyyy... Bumbu Asli! I run pass this restaurant almost every other day on my early morning run!
Another legend about the origins of Laksa Johor is that the Sultan Abu Bakar (great, great grandfather of the current Sultan) liked Spaghetti in Ragu (or marinara) sauce so much during his travels through Europe that he asked his cook to try and replicate the dish when he returned to Johor. The cook who only had local ingredients to work with came up with that fish sauce and paired it with spaghetti that the Royal entourage brought back with from their trip.
Oh, wow! What a great story! Thanks for sharing this.
Yo Ian, how r u. they had laksa at me mom's shop brah!
Soy sauce, chili, garlic and vinegar are the ingredients to make a delicious pisang goreng dipping sauce
Both of you, just like most Malaysians, love love love pisang goreng!
There are many types of pisang that are commonly used to make pisang goreng. I think one of your viewers described the varieties available in Malaysia.
Yes!! Hope that your Mom n fam will like pisang goreng too! :)
I hope your family will like Malaysia :)
Wishing you n fam a great time in Malaysia x
P.s. Really hoping that the whole fam will have the time & opportunity to spend some time in Kelantan too. My family’s hometown is in Kota Bharu ❤🎉
I think my mom will love pisang goreng. It's really an eye opener for someone who (like me, years ago) has only every tried 'raw' banana. It's so yummy
Steve saw his life flashed before his eyes when he said Murtabak Singapore is better than Murtabak Indonesia.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
M😊😊
Pisang Nangka is the original Cavendish banana
Cavendish banana is specially bred to have thicker skin otherwise it is the same
Plantain is a big banana that is not sweet
Green, yellow & black variety of plantain for different uses/cooking style
Steve, try to get frozen murtabak from Kelantan called Murtabak Raja/Royal Murtabak for your parents to try
Ok! We will try to take my parents there!

thats the best place for goreng pisang omg ..been there loads of years back ..surprised the place is still there
Ivana...you sure know how to eat the Malaysian way...I love it..
All very well mixed...
And that chilli and sambal...
Chilli sauce..
And sambal sauce ...2 diff..thing
Murtabak, originally named Motabbaq (Arabic) means folded. But some says it came from the word Mutabar (a Kerala/Tamil word means egg roti) and brought to Yemen where it got its Arabic name. Could be tho, because the Indians are the ones who introduced this dish in this region. But, basically it is stuffed roti and normally stuffed with meat like beef or chicken and became a thicker version of roti..
Malaysian murtabak normally uses fresh meat, precooked in curry et cetera.
Singaporean murtabak uses a lot of minced meat.
Indonesian, Brunei, Thailand version are almost similar too with different twist of course.
The one you had uses frozen minced meat & most likely fried, the reason why it taste drier instead of juicy. Not floss, not ground beef, not dry meat.
Not to be mistaken with Martabak Manis from Indonesia, which is called Apam Balik here in Malaysia. However, it is originally started by the Chinese traders... not sure what's the original name tho.. Ivana might know.. haha
In 1974 I ate pisang goreng at the stall with chili sauce. Everybody laughed at me and called me crazy. The next day when I went to the same pisang goreng stall (in Cheras) I saw everybody eating it with chili sauce. Since then, almost everybody want to eat pisang goreng with all kind of sauce.
The soy sauce is called sambal kicap and in Johor usually we put sauteed (tumis) garlic and bird eye chilli in it.
Delicious malaysian food is delicious, isn 't it? 👍👍
It is not only a soya sauce, we Johorean call it Sambal Kicap. The basic/base sambal kicap ingredients [my family style not sure about others] Sweet soya sauce, cili padi, garlic, gula melaka, salt, tamarind and vinegar. The homecook sambal kicap will be thick without any water added. To eat with goreng pisang we add more sugar. To eat with ikan bakar or kerang with add lime juice and chop onion. Or we can just eat as it is. Johorean are obsessed with Sambal Kicap, as for my family we always keep a bottle in stock.
‘Its more fresh than fishy hmmm’ steve’s face 😂
Many people can claim they can cook laksa Johor but not all can cook very good laksa Johor gravy k.
You guys spoiled me . Now i wait for chat in every premiere , LOL . Big kisses . Btw i was the first like . 😘
You're the best, Carla! Our plan is to premiere into a livestream on Saturday... and my mom might make an appearance in the live :) ! Stay tuned!!
The Murtabak Singapura is yummilicious! If U are in Singapore, U guys must try the Murtabak from Victory Restaurant near Arab Street. Next to Victory restaurant is Singapore Zam Zam Restaurant’s Murtabak. However, the best is stil the now defunct Queen Murtabak at Geylang Lorong 40.
The reason the fried bananas weren't that great to Steve was probably because it wasn't the right banana. Maybe fried pisang abu would be tastier.
Pisang Abu/nipah/kepok adalah jenis pisang yang sama.
In Johor, normally we fry pisang nipah, cousin of pisang abu
More fresh than fish... must be frish... anyway there is the story why the laksa Johor is using spaghetti... and the murtabak Singapore filling is made of spiced minced beef...
Even Malaysians who are non-Johoreans didn't expect Goreng Pisang to be so good with sambal kicap.
If you mix pounded or blended chillies with soy sauce, plus some sugar, it automatically taste different. Just different. Some people add one or two of garlic, some don't. Some add one or two cloves (cengkih), some don't. Some add bawang goreng, some don't.
Only at Johor we eat Pisang goreng with sambal kicap...... in sambal kicap we add chilli, garlic and soya sauce (kicap manis) a bit of sugar would be nice too (pound it not blend)..... some places in Johor the dipping sauce using the same method but add some crush ground peanut to make it thicker sauce. So now you already know how to make sambal kicap for pisang goreng.... hahahha
The soya sauce blended with garlic+cili padi....the sauce can be eaten with ikan bakar...fried taufu...and our local soup or soto...
Pisang Kepok/Nipah = Sweet
Pisang Nangka = Sweet and Soury
My Fav Pisang Nipah. Not a fan of sweet and sour banana
Try pisang emas goreng with sambal kicap, Keledek goreng and ubi ketok
It’s so obvious that steve didnt like the fried banana dipped in the soy sauce. 😂 As a malaysian myself, i also prefer to eat fried banana on its own!
LOL I definitely prefer sweet pisang goreng, more like a dessert than a meal. (Brazil has the best ones). But, in the end we ate the whole plate. I wouldn't say it was bad, but it was confusing LOL
The original recipe came from the grandmother of the Sultan of Johor, who was an English lady.
Suhanjaya Lian, pergi main jauh-jauh...
That leaves in the laksa is Daun Kesum (Vietnamese Corriander).
And there's also Bunga Kantan (Ginger Flower)
With sambal tumis also marvellous
Thanks for sharing the great vlog at Johore. Actually most food from Johore is delicious 😋 .have great day Steve Ivana the lovely couple 💖
inside of sambal kicap u can find garlic, soy sauce and 🌶️ . thats all. easy to make. just make sure u cook a bit the chili to prevent tummy ache
when im in johor, i always look for kacang pool. one of my favs!
Try eating BIHUN goring sea food (SHRIMP) you'll gonna love it
Thank you for this video. Lots of good food. Wonderful. The soy dipping sauce for the pisang goreng looked unique.
Have you guys tried sweet chillies dipping sauce for pisang goreng. The locals in Terengganu like it that way.
The fried banana Steve described from Brazil sounds like my late mom's recipe, she will fry the banana on its own without batter, and layer them with sprinkles of sugar, caramelizing the fried banana, yummy.
Thanks for sharing amazing video 📹
Try also Mee Siam. The wet and also the dry One.only in Johore and Singapore. And dont forget Kachang Pool.
How is it Pisang Goreng test...if walk up stairs, it is Yayasan Warisan Johor...you can visit Art Gallery, Tenun Johor Gallery, Village House Gallery....its Free...
Pisang goreng with sambal kicap.. Johor style mantap...
Kicap
Bawang putih
Gula
Cili hijau/merah
That it..done sambal kicap johor...
The kicap dip is called sambal kicap. Its a combination of kicap + garlic + cili padi + asam jawa + sugar. Or some other combinations depending on the locality.
Apart from soy sauce i also like to dip with peanut sauce normally used with satay.
Thicker version and spicier of this soy sauce is used in soto ayam.
This is more diluted and less spicy for pisang goreng.
Feeling like going to have murtabak tonite 😅😅
sweet soya sauce, chili PADI n garlic.. that the ingredients in sambal kicap
🐟🐟🐟🐟 spaghetti laksa 🍜🍜🍜.....not that fishy 👍👍😁😁... Steve would love it....🐟🐟🐟... the soya sauce sambal is not that spicy 🥣🥣🥣😁😁....so Steve and Ivana would love it as well eating with fried banana 🍌🍌🍌😁😁👍👍
The longer one is Pisang Nangka and the short fat one is Pisang Kepok / Nipah / Abu.
Both are plantain. Plantain is the kind of banana that need to be / normally cooked before consume. Verses banana like Pisang berangan, Restali, Pisang Emas that you can eat upon peeling. 😊
Pisang emas used to be a meal for long journey back then because it only ripe one by one out of bunch
discovered some new infos from you vid. thx for sharin. n keep on discoverin. ❤❤
I am Johorean… Betul Ivana… makanan d Johore memang enak banget👍👍👍👍👍
As a johorean, I eat sambal kicap with everything 😂😂😂
2 biji bawang putih
5 biji cili
1 sudu gula
Tumbuk semua bahan di atas
Masukkan kicap manis.
Siap. Cicah dgn cekodok pun sedap.
u should try bandung soda drink...specialist in Johor
Murtabak Kelantan taste 100 times better bro...and it only cost RM4 - RM5, full of meat & delicious spice taste...trust me 😁
Ohh no.. kelantan all food sweet
nope. kelantan food over sweet 😂
Yea inside the sos of pisang goreng is soy sos,garlic n sugar n Little bit water,that all😋
And Steve, your taste bud is amazing! There is garlic in the sambal kicap.
The basics in Johor-styled sambal kicap: bird's eye chillies, garlic, soy sauce, and sugar. You can skip the tamarind sauce or lime juice, or gula melaka, but NOT garlic.
soy source, cili padi, garlic, sugar, salt..blend together.. and sometime they cook it..
Kelantan has the most unique flavors of foodies in Malaysia!
Uwekk
Haha….now u goin to get troubled mate!😂 the tastes goin to haunt u once u leave Johor lol. Actually the murtabak place u eaten just now is where I was born 53 years old ago 😆. The road called Kolam Air Street (translation) the actual land where the shop sit, was my neighbor house where his family selling roti canal & Nasi lemak since 80’s. Tq for sharing…this place holds so many happy childhood memories, I’ll truly miss it 😢. Alhamdulillah 🤲🏻 Now I’ve my own family marrying a New Zealander & my parents had passed away, so every time I go back Johor Bahru I will drive around to show my kids this place. ❤️
Next time if you are around, you can try murtabak at Kampung Melayu Majidee. That is the best murtabak for me :)
My choice of condiment for pisang goreng is satay sauce 😋
Plantain is big banana steve! Malaysian call it pisang tanduk - bull horn banana.
Yo! I swear in Canada, plantains are tiny. Am I crazy??
Pisang nangga (firm type ) always my favourite.
Guess you guys next destination is Singapore?? You can travel via road
pisang goreng with sambal cili kicap,,perghhh
Nice video..
I lv the way you cut the roti with your spoon😂
Pisan goren best in town...tq bro n sis
I think u missed the fried mushroom & cekodok pisang at the Mawar Restaurant.
do you know that unripe Malaysian fruits such as the banana and papaya are also made as vegetable dishes to eat together with rice. We also use all sort of pickels from plums, lime kasturi, prunes, nutmeg etc to be cooked with chillie paste, as our side dishes which called as acar. We cook pineapples too with masak lemak and in kari (curry). We use manggo in our sambal belacan as to add sour flavour. That's the reason why it is possible to eat banana fritters with soy sambal,
Evana kicap hitam tu Maksn X Mau berhenti..pedas tapi sedap
That goreng pisang place (MAWAR headquarters) is popular in JB, simply because it was the favourite of the previous Sultan, the late Sultan Iskandar. Whenever he wants Goreng Pisang, the guards would buy it from that place.
However it's not the best place to get it in JB. Seriously.
Sambal kicap have onion, garlic, vinegar and chili padi
Bananas and i prefer nanka a bit on the sour side plantain is pisang tanduk
Also nice 1 ft long banana.
Always bake banana bread with it
Have u tries laksa belut?? Its more delicious..
While you two in Johor, maybe you should try Restoran Kari Kambing 40 Hari
sambal kicap is my fv sauce, dip with it damnn good🥰
Please try Mi Bandung and Mi Rebus
U must try tempe goreng with spicy soya sauce.
eating fried dish wth spicy soy sauce in johor never get perfected until u both try with fried cempedak, sweet potato n the most delicious banana called horn banana..more bigger in size (shape look like horn) n more delicious..the fresh one seller always hang it up in front their stall
I prefer it with LOTSA gravy
All my favourite food: laksa johor, murtabak singapura, banana fritters dipped in sambal kicap.
I think you can guess where i am from...
Johor 😊
Johore makes the best laksa although I still prefer to eat it with laksa noodle
