Heard/read about The Little Red Hen (#01-66 Amoy Street Food Centre, 7 Maxwell Road) doing nasi ulam. Ordered the ayam percik version which came with grilled chicken, half an egg and some urap.
Most of the flavour from the nasi ulam was laksa leaves and lemongrass - not getting much of what else was inside. Liked that the bean sprouts from the urap were cooked. I had been imagining the gravy on the chicken to be coconut-y but it turned out to be tangy - almost fruit like. Nice. 👍🏼
The description of nasi ulam mentioned about hand sliced herbs which were massaged into the rice. I got a fresh batch from my order and 'massaged' wasn't exactly the word I would use. Stirred and mixed in sounds about right.
