Thank you for this video, now I can share this video with my Finnish friends about the Penang Laksa which I have been so proud of. When they mentioned 'Laksa', they always referred to curry laksa.
😂 you’re welcome. Same in Australia. When it comes to laksa.,it’s curry laksa that’s what they know. But our Penang laksa is different and special 😊. Thanks for sharing with your friends. Victor 😊
This looks absolutely magnificent! I cannot wait to make it next week. I just have a question about the shrimp paste, can use the Thai version of fermented shrimp paste instead?
@@durarara911 …thanks. Yes, I am sure it will be fine. I would usually advise people if they haven’t tried a fermented shrimp paste is to add a little first and add more if necessary. In case, the smell and taste a bit strong for them 🤣.
@@reubenkhj4296 …I haven’t bought in Sydney before but I would think you can find it at Asian supermarkets in Chinatown that sells Malaysian/Singaporean brands and products. Look in the fridge/chilled sections. That’s where I found bunga kantan in the chilled section in Melbourne. Good luck hunting it down in Sydney Chinatown 😊
@@reubenkhj4296 a few Chinese grocery shops(not many of them). If you are around the Glen Waverley area in Melb. try the Chinese grocery shops along Kingsway way. They(Bunga K.) comes in frozen package from Malaysia. You can also buy the Laksa sauce in Frozen package as well.
Wow, again unreal amazing food that makes me want to win the lottery so I can come and eat Malaysia out of house and home 😂😋 I don't know any Malay, but I'm a good enough white person to be able to tell you in Nepali your food is great if that's an Asian country close enough to you? 😂
@@foodtripwithvictor Not joking Victor, your area of the world is amazing and has been ravaged in the past by white explorers. I’d just love to come and seeing this food and learning to cook some of it makes me want to come. If I do win I’ll be knocking on your door then you can teach me some Malay. Nepalis loved it when I told them their country was great and food better than English 😂😂👍

jia you, yummm, greetings from Viral Food Travel Channel ;)
@@Viral-Food-Travel-Channel hello! 👋
You can try planting the bunga kantan if you have a garden.
@@patricklee2799 ..not a bad idea except I don’t have a garden. Have you tried growing in a pot?
I cooked this dish Many Times in Melbourne over the past many years, one word to describe it, Delicious.
@@yttean98 ..it’s good for the cold winter days in Melbourne
Where can you get the bunga in australia ? I'm based in Canberra and need to travel to sydney to find it. Not sure where.

To save you time,show the staff a photo and if they stock the ginger flower bud, they will tell you. Otherwise move on to the next Asian supermarkets.
