Another classic Malaysian dish is the ayam percik. Essentially, this dish means roasted and spiced chicken. This flavourful dish is marinated with a bunch of spices, such as turmeric, cumin and coriander. When the chicken is roasted, the marinade caramlizes on the skin of the chicken, which gives it a delicious coating when consumed. A shortcut way to achieve the same flavour is to purchase the ayam percik paste. It makes a perfect marinade or dipping sauce and is super flavourful.
