Hericium Mushroom Rendang with Nasi Ulam

Reasonable #nasiulam where the sweet #cucumber and #pineapple #salad really stands out 😋 The #frenchbean and the #keropok are also good, and the #rice is lightly spiced and beautifully textured. The #rendang #curry is piquant and tasty, with the #potato in particular complementing it perfectly. Which brings me to the one disappointment - the #hericiummushroom was not fried or roasted, but boiled 😒 This meant that it was mushy and soft rather than firm and chewy, not at all a good match for the rendang. You'd think that you'd want to get this right if you're going to use it to headline the dish, no? 🙄 #malaysianeats
