Let's dive into the top 5 breakfasts you can savor in Malaysia, each promising to kickstart your day with a burst of flavor and a touch of cultural richness.

1. Nasi Lemak

Nasi Lemak is one of Malaysia’s staple rice dishes cooked in coconut milk and pandan leaf served with juicy fried chicken, fried anchovies, boiled eggs and sambal, the fragrant Malay Chili paste. This dish enjoyed with an ice cold Milo will definitely wake you up the right way with sweat and a happy satisfied tummy!

2. Roti Canai

The Roti Canai is the Indian’s fried pancake and almost all Malaysians love it. The making of this pancake is quite a show on its own, involving the dough being swung into the air skillfully. It is usually served with dal or curry. For the most gratifying experience, you got to forsake the cutlery and eat it with your bare hands! We can assure you, it is worth getting your hands dirty for. Make sure you have it with the best Teh Tarik drink!

3. Buns and Kueh

Ask anyone who grew up in a typical Malaysian family, before school routine normally involves heading to the nearest market or kopitiam to get some Buns and Kueh for breakfast on-the-go. You can pick from Kuih salat, Nonya Kuehs, to curry puffs and hot dog buns, the variety is so large that you are spoilt for choice every single time!

4. Kaya Toast

The Kaya Toast is the basic Malaysian breakfast, but they also love to have a few brioche buns. It is basically bread toasted to perfection and slathered with some sweet kaya, a coconut jam which is really, the Nutella of Malaysia. It goes well with soft-boiled eggs flavoured with pepper and soy sauce and a hot cup of coffee or tea.
