Sambal Nasi Lemak (Ikan Bilis)

Sambal Ikan Bilis is a popular Malaysian dish made with crispy anchovies (ikan bilis) and a spicy, flavorful sambal sauce.

The sambal is typically made from a blend of red chilies, shallots, garlic, and shrimp paste, all fried together to create a rich, aromatic paste.
Often served as a condiment alongside rice, it’s commonly enjoyed with nasi lemak, adding a fiery kick to the dish. This simple yet savory dish is a favorite for many.
