About Malay-style black curry

Malay-Style Black Curry is a rich and aromatic dish rooted in Malaysian cuisine, known for its bold flavors and deep, dark color derived from toasted spices and caramelized aromatics. Typically made with a protein such as chicken, beef, or tofu, it features a fragrant blend of spices like cloves, star anise, cinnamon, black cardamom, and turmeric, combined with coconut milk for a creamy texture. The dish often includes shallots, garlic, ginger, and chili, delivering a balance of spicy, savory, and slightly sweet flavors. While the dish is nutrient-dense, offering protein and healthy fats from the coconut milk, its calorie content can be high, especially if served with rice. It’s also high in sodium if pre-made curry pastes are used. To make it healthier, use lean proteins, control coconut milk portions, and pair it with whole-grain rice or vegetables for added fiber and nutrients.
