" nasi lemak was a simple dish with rice cooked with ‘santan’ (coconut milk), topped with hardboiled egg and sambal ikan bilis – and few slices of cucumber. Today, it is no surprise that creative vendors often provide many side dishes to go with the nasi lemak, such as fried eggs, fried chicken, ‘rendang paru’, ‘sambal sotong’, ‘chicken rendang’ which is usually high in saturated fats and contributes to the high-levels of bad cholesterol in our body!

If one meal of nasi lemak provides 400 – 550 calories and that our common calories intake for a day should be less than 2500 – 2700 calories; this would have mean that one serving of nasi lemak has taken up about 20% of the day’s calories intake! And what of our lunch and dinner, and snacks such as candies, chips, biscuits and cookies intake from time to time?"
