Welcome to my blog. My reason for setting this blog is because I would like to share what I know and hopefully other people will contribute too. Unfortunately, there are not many nice Malaysian restaurants in Auckland. Occasionaly people asked me to recommend. Personally I am not even able to even shortlist even one restaurant. The most disappointing thing is the turnover of Malaysian restaurant owners are very high. Therefore the standard of the food and service drop. You might like the restaurants on your first visit and when you are back the second time round, you might see a new menu and different staff.
Anyway, let me share this recipe with you. Nice and easy to make.
Rojak
Part 1
Sauce: 4-6 red chillies, 1 tsp toasted belacan, pounded finely
3 tbsp tamarind paste
1 tbsp thick black soya sauce mixed with 1/2 cup water
4 thsp shrimp paste (har koh)
1/2 tsp salt or to taste
Part2
About 300g toasted peanuts (yes you can toast it in the oven), skin removed, pounded coarsely
50g toasted sesame seeds
Ingredients:
You can use fruit or vegetables such as mango, cucumber, pineapple and apples.
Method:
Mix part 1 until well combines. Add 2/3 of the peauts, mix to form a thick paste. Pour into a bowl.
Arrange or stir all ingredients on a big platter or bowl.
Easy to prepare and can be done hours in advance.
Enjoy!

Yum, your recipe sounds great. I agree with you about Malaysian restaurants. I have tried several on the North Shore and none are good. If you ever do find out about a good one do tell me.
