In Kuala Lumpur, street markets pop up all over the town during the month of Ramadan with delicious foods for breaking fast. From snacks, drinks and a dazzling variety of curry dishes, observers of the Muslim calendar purchase these foods to eat after sunset. These markets allow busy families, fatigued from a full day of fasting, to have a great iftar meal, without having to prepare food at home. Linda selected a few typical dishes found in these markets exclusively during the Ramadan season; due to the limited availability, all of these foods are enjoyed by locals, regardless of their faith and religious practice. Cook these Malay dishes with us and experience a bit of the delicious night life during this time of year.
