im malaysian and i approve this!!! 😋😁
Bubbleqa 🥰🥰🥰
@@Marionskitchen next try the malaysia asam laksa, it's reddish clear soup type made of fish flesh
@@Marionskitchen yes, u should try asam laksa, wonderful sweet sour taste
Im Bruneian but I just know about serawak curry laksa a year ago during "Hari Raya" at my cousin in Limbang and I have been falling in love and craving for it since then..😋😋 but now Limbang is under lock down.. I can't eat it anymore😭 that's why I have been searching for the recipe.. Thanks for the vid😘
Hi Marion you're amazing
I'm a Malaysian and love having a good bowl of Laksa Lemak every weekend. This - I approve. Thank you Marion for keeping it authentic without any alteration :) !
Looks like a combination of all the delicious stuff of this world.
Marion, I am from Penang. I have been away from home for more than decades and I do miss CurryMee. I have searched the tube for recipe. You are the best. Thanks for sharing. I know you used all the right ingredients, and the way you cook shows that you know the proper technique of cooking. Thank you again and keep up the good work!!!
I love laksa. I had it in singapore at a Toast Box. I barely fit in those tiny chairs and tables but its so good. One of the best things you'll ever eat!
I liked the video even before I watched it!! As a Singaporean I know Marion doesn't disappoint 😊 however a very important ingredient for laksa is Vietnamese coriander also called laksa leaves. They are available at asian grocers. Without this you can't have an authentic laksa taste. Just chop them finely and cook them in the soup or garnish at the end (but it's not just a garnish). You'll see this in all coconut broth laksas in Malaysia and Singapore.
Malaysian Laksa is more like Assam Laksa from Penang. Their Laksa don't use coconut broth... Their 'Laksa with coconut broth' version is actually called Curry Mee in Malaysia.
Appəl I know that but there are also those who use coconut milk. And no, curry mee is not the same as laksa. Curry mee uses the same curry as a regular Malaysian/Singaporean chicken curry, not laksa curry - very very very different!
@@AO-iv6yr That's not really true either though.
Curry Mee and Curry Laksa are essentially the same thing. Chinese people and people from Penang just tend to call it Curry Mee.
I think the confusion here is because the video says that Laksa Lemak is also known as Curry Laksa. This isn't true, it's actually it's a variation of Nyonya Laksa which also doesn't tend to have the Curry powder flavour.
To the previous poster's point. This just isn't true. Assam Laksa (aka Penang Laksa) is just one of the variations of Laksa in Malaysia. There are DOZENS... Laksa Lemak, Nyonya Laksa, Curry Laksa, Curry Mee, Johor Laksa, Kedah Laksa, Sarawak Laksa, Laksa Kahwin, Laksam, Siam Laksa, Ipoh Laksa.... etc. etc. etc. (and we're not even mentioning Singapore and Indonesian variants!)
The beauty of Laksa is there is NO set rule. Each region has their own (often maddeningly anomalous) recipe. I mean Johor laksa even has bloody spaghetti in it!
The only constants are a noodles of some sort and a broth made from a paste of shallot, chili and lemongrass (at a minimum).
A O and also missing the cockle pieces! I love my laksa with a bit of cockles!!!
Thomas Mullany curry mee and curry laksa are not the same thing. You can ask any local in Singapore and they know that there's a huge difference even though they look similar. Those who don't know this are swa ku (living under a rock). Curry mee does not have daun kesum and other fancy ingredients like lemongrass. Curry mee is basically chicken curry poured on top of noodles, like curry rice. Laksa curry is not the same as usual Malaysian/Singapore chicken curry. Please get your facts right.
We have variety of laksa actually here in Malaysia 🇲🇾
i am happy u used authentic ingredients n recipes without skimming or taking any shortcuts. u deserve so much credit. keep up the great work.
Those ingredients used are good
We asian will also use "laksa leaves or daun kesum ( in malay) , this leaves is a must as to enhance the taste
Nama DAUN KESUM dalam bahasa Inggeris adalah POLYGONUM LEAVES atau VIETNAMESE CORIANDER. Memang tiada pengganti untuknya bila memasak kuah laksa ini. ( The English name for DAUN KESUM is POLYGONUM LEAVES or VIETNAMESE CORIANDER. There is no substitute for it when cooking this laksa gravy ).
@@ributsuria good info👍
Do u use curry powder as well or not? Or just that paste? Yes i also add daun kesum or vietnamese mint
@@mcdiebithell2825 ..yeah I do put some curry powder to enhance the taste..in fact it taste better 👍😊
@@noni6439 thanks so much for ur reply
I'm a simple Malaysian. I see laksa, I click the lick-err, like button.
Hi there handsome stranger 😏
I like how marion explain the galangal and ginger smell, that's is so easy to imagine 😂
Thank You marion for making this recipe
love from Malaysia
Laksa in restaurants are so expensive and thank you Marion because I can now cook this at home and share to my family.
The first time I saw her was on Masterchef years back. Marion's come a long way after that.
I’m Australian living in England and they don’t sell Laksa here like they do back home. You just gave helped curve my Laksa nostalgia but teaching me how to make this wonderful Malaysian dish. I thank you ever so much for making the complex look so simple. I can’t wait to make this!!! Yayeee !! Xxxx
Thank you for representing Malaysia so beautifully!!!
true🤗
Lasksa always look sooooo complicated to me but my friend recommended your recipes..... for someone that don’t really know how to cook; I gave it a try because it look soooo delicious & OMG it was a success ; I made my first lasksa & its actually turn out sooo well & actually tasty! ( like lasksa! Hahaha😂) Thank you!!! 💖💕👍
Lea Lea LASKSA? lmao
Next recipe to try. I think you may already know this but cut the dry chilli before soaking. This way, the seeds will be left at the bottom of the bowl when done soaking.
When you drained the stock, I legit drooled. So delicious 🤤
I'm Malaysian, and I love your video on laksa, and your channel! Subscribed!
sunz1230 🥰👌🥰
I have always been intimidated to make this dish. You made it look so easy and doable. My husband is going to be so proud if me. Haha. Thanks Marion
Rosie Nguyen Give it a try! It’s not so hard I promise! 😊
candle nut is " kemiri " in indonesia it's easy to find here we use that for thickening paste like sambal we use it in garlic sambal or soup with coconut oil " santan " we call it like laksa that also use coconut oil, yes indonesia have laksa it's malay dish in sumatra if i'm not mistake, not claiming we malaysia and indonesia are family so we share culture together food also.
the topping i suggest use " Melinjo " / gnetum cracker a little bit bitter but wake up u'r taste bud, and a lot garlic chip that made from thin slice garlic deep fried it it sooooo gooooood i guarantee, say hi from u'r indonesian fans Marion u'r video always great love u and keep posting recipe video.
last one try to enjoy it with garlic sambal, fried garlic 2 clove or one, and mix it with thai chili or we call it " cabe rawit" like small red chili pepper as u'r taste how many u want to put in crush it with mortar with just salt after u crush it with mortar until like paste pour hot fried oil that u already for frying garlic and mix it, i guarantee it will taste good.
Melinjo is the best ever cracker. My whole family love it so much but it's kinda difficult to find it in Malaysia.
Really love how every video is practically food porn lol
Sara Hooper 🥰🥰🥰
haha it really is ! you hit the nail on the head Sara :)
AGREE. Marion has the BEST food styling of any cooking video on TH-cam. Besides, her recipes are REAL. AMAZING !!
Thank you so much! This is one of my husband's favorite dishes and we struggle to find places that serve it or sell a good paste. I'm going to be using this recipe from now on!
I was literally salivating watching those prawn/shrimp heads cook!!! I never throw them away! I also keep my ginger peels and woody bits of any veg or aromatic; throw them all into a tea bag or ball and add them to anything being cooked or a soup... instant healthy flavour! Zero waste kitchen :)
I am a Malaysian and this looks soooo delicious! 😋
Marion I can't thank you enough for this amazing recipe you simplified it in your soft spoken confident voice! I'm a big fan of Laksa Lemak and now I'm a pro at making this at home because of you. I LOVE YOU FOR THIS, Terima Kasih from Saudi.
This recipe looks fantastic and great for these cold months here in the States. Thank you so much for sharing!
Laksa is literally my favourite noodle soup!! 👏👏
Love this recipe, made it about 8 times now and it beats most take away and restaurants. Makes me really appreciate it when a good restaurant does better.
Thanks for making this Malaysian comfort food Queen Marion, really appreciate it so much!
I’ve made this 3 times now, first couple of times were a little less creamy than I’d like when I compare to my all time favourite dealer (Thai Garden Restaurant in Dickson) of this drug. Third time I ended up doing a small batch and using a quarter of the paste to a full 400ml tin of coconut cream and it was absolutely amazing. Hands down better than any laksa I’ve ever bought. I also had made a beautiful silky chicken stock the night before so this might also be adding to the foodgasm I’m having right now. Thanks so much Marion. I have an old Charmaine Solomon book that has laksa lemak but never got around to making it. Watching you do it suddenly made it seem a lot less daunting than I thought it would be. You’re an absolute legend.
Thank you Marion, I'm from the Philippines. My husband and I can't get enough laksa. Really need to learn this complex dish.
ONE OF MY FAMILY'S FAVORITE....GORGEOUS
Laksa is my ultimate asian comfort food. Creamy, spicy, messy & yummy!
Was craving for Laksa the past few weeks but could not easily find laksa paste here in the Philippines. Thank goodness for saving the day… and my cravings! ❤❤❤
I’ve been making a lot of traditional international recipes for. Few months now, always wanted to make laksa from scratch. Tonight was the night and holy moly! I’ve never had a laksa that tasted soo good. I found all ingredients listed but the coriander didn’t come with the root. I knew it would be good but it’s on another level. Thanks so much for your work Marion, Chiang Mai noodles next.
I tried it before when I was in Malaysia. Love it. Now with this recipe, I gonna make my own laksa.
I'm Singaporean, and my mom has never told me that prawn heads are good...😁 but deep fries prawn heads are sooooo delicious so I totally know what you mean! This recipe looks great, especially if unable to find laksa leaves
Thank you Marion. I made this tonight as my first Laksa from scratch and it was fantastic, the best Laksa I've had, much better than a jar of paste.
It looks absolutely STUNNING!!! That looks restaurant quality!!! If NOT, BETTER!! All the true and legit ingredients used!!
Just made Laksa for the first time. I did cheat and bought the paste-do not have a food processor. It was so tasty can’t wait to make my own paste. If it wasn’t for Miss Marion I would have never tried it. Nomnomnom. It’s like Tom yum and curry had a delicious baby.
With watching u r this awesome tasty laksa recipe iam feeling very hungry and i think that i will consume the whole family dinner.

@@Marionskitchen hehe but seriously, Marion, thank you so much for everything you do. I have learned SO MUCH not only about Thai cooking but Asian cooking in general. I've literally watched ALL your videos! Keep it up! We love ya!
Great JOB Marion's, you had prove that non-asian not only knowing how to cook chicken chop, chicken chop, pasta. love your Malayisan Laksa recipe!!!
I think you're truly Asian inside. Well Done Marion. So proud of you.
I made this today.....the bomb!!! I’m Malaysian...This is superb. Was half worried about the fish sauce....not over powering at all!
Okay I am so gonna eat Laksa Lemak for dinner tonight!!! Nyumsssss
U literally my current fave youtube chef muse.. whatever that means to u!
This is the best DIY laksa video on TH-cam! Well done Marion!!!
Laksa lemak is one of my top 5 favorite dishes of all time. I just wish it was as popular in the States as phở which is just about everywhere now. I learned how to make laksa @ home 10 years ago using Asian store-bought paste. Thanks for sharing your recipe Marion, I'll give it try! 😊
I can't find the best laksa here in Hongkong. Better do it myself. Yours is the best ! 😄😄😄
one of my favourite dish 😍 i tried it in Singapore it was so yummy and delicious always want to try the recipe at home
Laksa is my favorite. Thank you!
Omg Marion I’ve been waiting for this video for so long!!! I can’t wait to see more Malaysian food ❤️❤️❤️
Just the colour of the soup by itself is an amazement
We love your food, Marion :-) And always watch your channel!
Love the way you show the process completely.love and respect.u make understand every flavors
I love her effort
Thanks for this video and recipe. I'll ask my daughter based in CJ to bring galangal on her next visit to us here in Manila. I have never seen galangal in any known groceries close our place.
Wow, great recipe! Always wanted to know what is behind this complex tasting dish. Miracle explained! Same as the pancake! Another Asian ingredient I would love know the secret of is the Asian roasted sesame sauce or mayonnaise. It is so delicious over veggie salad. That would be amazing, cause of it’s versatility
Wow thanks Marion this is the recipe that i am looking my fav yummy i will definetly cook this😊
Thank You Marion doing this, to making Laksa so simple to make by everyone around the world.
Love from Malaysia.
I made this tonight and it blew us away!! Love from Sydney Australia!

(TELL ME IF THERE ARE MORE! in reply)
My grandchild thank you for this. I am following you always.
Marion gorgeous looking curry. Up north of Malaysia (Ipoh), we love adding mint leaves to our curries too. Try it and see if you like it too!
Always be my favourite. The creamy curry soup is the star.
We eat this often with the family. It's very nice
Oooh I have a bag of prawn shells in my freezer and was wondering what to do with them. Thanks!
Thank you for another secret in making laksa recipe, yummy recipe.
Love the way present your recipe....I love to cook and teach cooking classes and I sure refer to your recipes always...More power to you Ma'am
I can't find authentic laksa noodles where I live, but if you do a TH-cam search for "laksa noodles recipe" you can make your own from scratch. Another thing I won't be able to find easily are shrimp with their heads still on, but I guess I can save the shrimp shells after I peel my shrimp and use those instead. Thanks for the laksa recipe!
Just cook it today.. mate!! It was fantastic tucker. Cheers Marion!!!
I love this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing this Marion, you make it look so easy.!
Last time I ate Laksa was 8 years ago. And I still can't find any in my town. I think it's time to make it after watched your recipe 😍
I’ve tried this recipe and it was amazing ... love it so much ...thank you for this recipe... from Malaysia 🇲🇾...
Thank you so much for the recipe @marion'sKitchen. I've been waiting forever for you to make this video. Hope you didn't hear my stomach rumbling from Thailand. Shoutouts from Malaysia
parmeila dhevi 🤣🤣🤣
Omg i freeze my ginger as well the same way. Glad I'm not the only one. Best way to preserve them as they're usually expensive
Nice prep and good cooking presentation.. i love this recipe. Malaysian Laksa
I made this and my family went insane! This recipe is so easy to follow, I’m glad I made it from scratch :). I added a little Korean gochujung to add heat and less chilies :)
Love your videos. I have bought 2 of your cook books. Yummy and thank you
the music, the food, the editing of this video 😍😍😍
Made it today and it turned out absolutely brilliant!
I’ve never made laksa before so I was expecting to make some mistakes and have something that tastes good but not exactly laksa.
I *did* make a few mistakes and couldn’t find galangal anywhere in SL, yet this is is an amazingly forgiving recipe Cos the end result tasted unbelievably just like the ones I’ve had in Malaysia and Singapore.
Going on my firm favorite recipe list. ♥️♥️
Thank you for this recipe naka !! I love laksa had it while I was living in Sydney until now has been about 12 years since I had laksa. I’m going to make this real soon ขอบคุณคร้า!!!
Nice & georgeous recipes frm u..... usually in MY your laksa similar w sarawak laksa or chinese laksa. But, for southern of malaysia (johorean) we eat laksa soup w spaghetti ( malay ft dutch ), tht one is laksa johor but u need add abit of curry powder. Btw, im really love ur asian recipes especially thai cuisines.
Made this last night.. so easy, delicious & filling. Thanks Marion for another 100% reliable recipe 🙏🏻
I will try for sure! I would hug you for such a gentle and clear recipe!
One of my fave Asian dishes 🏴✊🏼🇪🇺🎨
you did a great job for this laksa.looks scrumptious
Your videos are fabulous Marion! Any chance of making a dish that includes konjac noodles for a lower carb option?
Malaysian Laksa. MMMMMmmmm Very deliciousss .
I m Malaysian n I like your laksa.
I like your this dish so much and coiked it yesterday too. It was really good.
Those in the Toronto, Canada area can find Candle Nuts at Btrust. Just spotted them in aisle 8b of their Mississauga store in the first stretch just before the middle aisle.
I used to eat laksa when I was in Australia, I love them
Your cooking is really making me miss home even more!
I love your cooking! Keep it up 👍🏼
Wow looks so delicious 👍
My kiwi friends, Vietnamese and Indian friends all approved this. Its so good! BTW, I'm Malaysian myself 😂😂 thank you Marion!
Thank y'all so much dearest 🌹
Y'all such an inspiration 🥰
Appreciate y'all from the bottom of my heart 💖
Be Blissful Eternally 🙏👼🌈
I used to eat at a food court in Cabramatta and had the best Laksa I'd ever had. I found out later that she used evaporated milk as well as coconut cream. Oh, and sliced fish cake. I'll have to try your version :)
