Plan B For When You Can T Get A Hold Of Mom S Cooking

---

As the holy month of Ramadan arrives, some of us may not be able to break fast with mom’s incredible cooking. While we may not be able to exactly replicate your mother’s dishes, we can share with you ours through a Ramadan menu we’ve specially created with Plan B. Now you can get comfort food to remind you of home specially delivered to your doorstep.
Yearning For Mom’s Cooking… Many fond memories that will forever be cherished includes family sitting around a table, patiently waiting for the call of azan while hungrily looking at the simple fare that mom made. Being adults now, we have so many responsibilities tying us down. A mom’s cooking, however, always seems to be able to bring us comfort.
Do you recall classic dishes that your mom would often make? Was it Masak Lemak Cili Api? Or was it Assam Pedas Ikan Tenggiri? There was so much love that went into those dishes. This Ramadan we will attempt to pay homage to all the moms that tirelessly poured their love into cooking for us with recipes we know and love now available for many of you to try.
When Plan A Fails, Use Your Plan B! Menu curated with love Despite being a contemporary, modern cafe that serves mainly fusion dishes, the core values of Plan B are very much traditional. Ben Yong, founder of the Big Group believes strongly that food is the key to a strong, united community. For him, Plan B is a place of happiness and celebration where food is made with love and the customers are treated like family.
The whole idea, values and concept behind Plan B resonates with Ben’s aspiration of recreating fond memories you have as a child, especially the feeling of comfort, warmth and love you would get from your mom. With that in mind, Plan B’s Chef Wan Mohd Sabri and Butterkicap’s own Chef Nik Michael Imran have been experimenting in the kitchen for months just to get the flavour and feel right without compromising on the personal touches they put on certain dishes that they hold dear.
Ramadan Must-Trys in Plan B This Ramadan is a bittersweet one indeed. We associate Ramadan as a month of family, gatherings and reflection. This year, we are forced to celebrate the holy month with social distancing in mind. Instead of feeling sad, let’s use this opportunity to prove that you can be together with family and loved ones, not just in spirit but through the thoughts and care parcelled together with our favourite classic dishes.
Among the new Ramadan dishes that we have created with Plan B , there are 5 particular dishes we want to highlight here. Not just for their beautiful presentation, but also for the flavour, textures as well as the refined quality added by Chefs Nik and Wan Mohd Sabri. These chefs have have taken these traditional dishes to the next level.
Nasi Ulam Piri Percik Nasi ulam with a Nando-like vibe. There are tangy notes you can detect in the percik sauce made with peri-peri, a type of hot pepper that is commonly used in Portuguese and Jamaican cooking. Interestingly, the tanginess of the pepper does not clash with the rich, milky santan flavour that makes Plan B’s percik sauce a delightful treat.
Roti John Who doesn’t love the simple flavours of Roti John? Beloved by all, this simple street fare is made with curry-flavoured egg mixture with bits of minced meat, sandwiched between two buttery buns. So, how can you make something so good even better? Instead of using normal bread, our recipe uses Hokkaido milk bread. The subtle milky sweet taste of the bread highlights the mixture of spices in the egg-meat patty perfectly. This is one Roti John you don’t want to miss out.
Ikan Cencaru Sumbat Sambal Classics are always evergreen for a reason, just like this dish. Ikan Cencaru Sumbat Sambal is one of those simple but oh so very satisfying dishes. This unassuming dish is definitely a must-try because the perfection of the sambal stuffed into the fish. When cooked together, the flavours mingle perfectly.
Masak Lemak Cili Api Telur Sotong What is Ramadan without Masak Lemak Cili Api? A celebrated kampung food, many restaurants and shops boast of having the best masak lemak cili api. More often than not, they aren’t the best. So, what makes Plan B’s version different? The answer is the squid egg. Fluffy, soft and juicy, the squid eggs absorb the lemak cili api gravy, inadvertently turning into a bomb of flavour.
Masak Lemak Butternut Squash with Pucuk Labu Fresh, simple and light, the Masak Lemak Butternut Squash is, hand’s down, the most underrated kampung dish. The flavours are perfect on its own and you don’t have to add dishes to make the eating experience more enjoyable. All you need is some fresh ulam, maybe half a salted egg and of course, sambal belacan. Perfecto!
