Chill people, allow me to elaborate. Laksa is a malay influenced dish which has multiple variation. There's Thai laksa which Jamie sort of did in this video but missing the fish stock; Assam Laksa from Penang; Lemak Laksa, Kuching Laksa and lastly singapore's curry Laksa. But let's get things straight, calling laksa thai though is like calling taco American. And i believe none of the variation mentioned above uses squash in their stock. Correct me if i'm wrong though. (Flies away)

This looks like a cross between Satay, Green Curry, Teriyaki Chicken. Very interesting. Not exactly Laksa. Nyonya Laksa paste is: Lemongrass, Galangal, Candlenuts, Dry Chilli, Shrimp Paste (Belacan, Turmeric, Coconut Milk, Shallots and Garlic. Lastly it is watered down with shrimp broth or chicken broth The sesame oil, coriander leaves, and fish sauce is like mixing elements of Japanese, Thail and Vietnamese cooking all into one.

Awesome and Shitty at the same time. It looks good but pls dont name it as Laksa. Its more like curry. And the Ingredient For Laksa doesnt have Cube stock, Squash, asparagus & Peanut Butter. Laksa is Seafood Based which is Prawns, Clams and abit of Beansprouts in it. Especially (Ba-La-Chan(can google if u like) is one of the most core paste ingredient(grinded in stone like Pots with a few spice and small Dried Prawn.

I understand this is a Laksa-inspired dish hence Jamie omitted the Malaysian/Singaporean terms from the video title. The dish does look creative and probably delicious however I fail to identify any ingredient inspiration from the fish-based, assam laksa most iconic of Penang nor the prawn chilli sambal coconut curry laksa more common in Singapore in this recipe.

I am Malaysian, but I think all you Malaysian brethren should calm down. The video says it all. JAMIE'S Quick Chicken Laksa. This means it's not authentic, and it's his rendition of a curry laksa. In fact, as much as it is not original or authentic, you can't call him out because the fact of the matter is he didn't mention this was authentic.

I was really excited to see a recipe for laksa but these ingredients are really bizarre. Laksa is a soupy combination of curry paste, paprika, garlic, lemon grass, coconut milk, chicken, and thick, round rice noodles. Condiments are fish sauce, herbs, and thinly sliced cabbage. Your recipe reminds me of kare kare, a Filipino stew.

I like how he says he's going for the classic rice noodles and then basically does whatever he wants for the rest of the recipe. Honestly, anyone who doesn't even fry their spices off in oil before tossing in water is begging to get burnt and flayed online. I really don't know how this guy got his celebrity status, truly horrendous.

That ain't Laksa - its typical English shit slop pot crap - this guy should try cooking without being totally shit faced, he should check into a few A. A. meetings and sign up to a cooking school and get some cooking lessons - what ever that's supposed to be - it's a disgrace

made a version of your butternut Squash laksa cups last night using. rice. put it in storage bags in the fridge, it has gone really thick. It tastes really nice but the texture has gone wrong, what can I do to rescue it? I thought about putting it in a blender or adding water?
