Ayam Masak Merah Recipe
Ayam Masak Merah (Malaysian Red Chicken Curry) is a luscious, bright crimson dish featuring succulent fried chicken bathed in a spicy, tangy, and slightly sweet tomato-chilli sambal. This authentic Malay style chicken curry is a prominent feature at festive occasions like Eid (Hari Raya) and traditional weddings across Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. Though its fiery red hue looks intimidating, the heat can easily be adjusted from mild to robust.
The secret to an extraordinary Ayam Masak Merah lies in the art of patience—slow-cooking the freshly ground spice paste until the oil separates, creating a silky, flavourful gravy that infuses beautifully into the meat.
