Otak Otak is a savoury fish custard with fragrant curry flavours and is eaten all over Malaysia and Singapore in various forms, usually wrapped in banana leaves and steamed, but sometimes also grilled. The name means 'brain brain' because of a supposed resemblance to brains - I don't see it myself! The version I am going to introduce is the Penang style otak otak. It is primarily made up of fish, coconut milk and a whole lot of spices mixed together and steamed. The flavour of this dish will come from the coconut milk and spices, and, the aroma will come from kaffir lime and beatle nut leaves.
