Otak-Otak is a popular Southeast Asian dish, often associated with Malaysian, Indonesian, and Singaporean cuisines. This flavorful delicacy is made primarily from fish paste, commonly mackerel or tenggiri, blended with aromatic spices such as garlic, shallots, turmeric, and chili. Coconut milk and eggs are often added to enhance its texture and taste. The mixture is then wrapped in banana leaves and grilled or steamed, giving it a smoky aroma and tender consistency. Otak-Otak is rich in protein from the fish base, making it a good source of essential nutrients like Omega-3 fatty acids. However, its coconut milk content can contribute to higher saturated fats, so moderation is advised for those managing cholesterol levels. It's low in carbohydrates and can be a flavorful addition to a balanced diet when paired with vegetables or lighter sides.
