Brief History
Masak Merah, which translates to “red cooking,” is a traditional Malay dish known for its bright red sauce made from tomatoes, chilies, and a blend of spices. This dish reflects the vibrant and bold flavors of Malaysian cuisine, showcasing the use of fresh, local ingredients to create a rich and satisfying sauce. Sambal, on the other hand, is a beloved condiment throughout Southeast Asia, known for its intense heat and complex flavors derived from a mixture of chilies, garlic, and other spices.
