Discover the top 5 best halal Laksam in Singapore

Laksam is a traditional Malay dish originating from the east coast states of Malaysia, such as Kelantan and Terengganu.

 

It consists of thick, flat rice noodles rolled into bite-sized pieces and served in a creamy, aromatic white gravy made from coconut milk, blended fish (typically mackerel), and mild spices. The dish is garnished with fresh vegetables like shredded cucumber, bean sprouts, and herbs such as daun kesum (Vietnamese coriander), which add a refreshing crunch. Often accompanied by sambal for a spicy kick, Laksam is a comforting and flavourful dish that reflects the rich culinary heritage of Malaysia’s coastal regions.
