There is a change in our Laksa... we have decided to move from Malaysia style Laksa to a Jakarta style Laksa, which is a more Asam based. Hot from our pot for a cold Autumn day.
"Assam laksa is a sour fish-based soup. Asam (or asam jawa) is the Malay word for tamarind, which is commonly used to give the stock its sour flavor. It is also common to use "asam keping" also known as "asam gelugor", dried slices of tamarind fruit, for added sourness. Modern Malay spelling is asam, though the spelling assam is still frequently used." excerpt from wikipaedia
