The brand leveraged the talents of food researcher and culinary academician, Chef Syafiq Othman, to showcase the taste and aroma of Ayam Brand™ Coconut Milk Super Light through a cooking demonstration and food sampling for media and influencers at Giant Bandar Kinrara, Puchong.
Chef Syafiq demonstrated a curated selection of heritage dishes including Gulai Mackerel, Bingka Labu, Lawa Terung, and on-trend fusion creations such as Matcha Santan Boba Tea and Seafood Laksa Spaghetti. All recipes can be cooked in under 30 minutes making, using ingredients that are easily available and with basic kitchen equipment such stovetop and blender.
“Santan is a distinctive ingredient in many recipes. It has a nutty creaminess, a slight saltiness and a caramel aroma that cannot be duplicated by dairy, soy milk or even nut milks. It is santan that gives traditional curries, rendangs and desserts that added dimension of flavour, and the creamy ‘lemak’ mouth feel. However, ‘lemak’ can be too rich and too heavy, which is why Ayam Brand™ Coconut Milk Super Light is developed. With 75% less fat than raw coconut milk, it lightens up your cuisine without compromising the taste, texture and aroma of the dish,” he said.
“Innovations such as this Santan Super Light can help preserve our traditional cuisine and keep it current and relevant to increasingly health conscious Malaysians, and encourage a new generation to discover and experiment with the treasure trove of local flavours,” Chef Syafiq said.
