Aborigine is cooking (Masakan Orang Asli Melaka)

Two girls were cleaning huge tapioca roots when I crossed over to the next booth. Many communities come together to share their original recipes on the Kota Esplanade yesterday and today.

The Heritage Cuisines Fest 2016 is pleasing some 25,000 food-lovers for two days; Saturday 17 and Sunday 18, September 2016.

Dua gadis sedang membersihkan satu tong ubi kayu semasa saya melintas ke khemah sebelah. Ramai kaum berkumpul di sepanjang Jalan Kota untuk berkongsi cara masakan warisan mereka kepada peminat makanan.

Pesta Masakan Warisan Melaka 2016 berjaya memuaskan lebih kurang 25 ribu peminat makanan, semalam dan hari ini.

Saya sungguh gembira kerana dapat peluang bergaul dengan orang asli Simpang Ampat, Melaka. (Lihat gambar)

I am happy to get a chance to ask these aborigine from Simpat Ampat, Melaka about the cookings.

Their home decorative items are made of dried flowers, leaves and stems.

Daripada bunga, daun dan buloh, orang asli sana menghiasi rumah mereka.

Turning dried leaves into beautiful shades by weaving, the aborigine is not only creative but they are friendly too.

Menjalin daun merupakan suatu perkara biasa bagi mereka.

Sambal Tumis Bunga Kantan senang dibeli tetapi merasai keenakan asli masakan warisan Orang Asli Simpang Ampat bukan banyak peluang. Hanya setahun sekali dapatlah di Pesta Masakan Warisan Melaka.

To buy Fiery Hot Sambal is easy but to taste the original aborigine method of cooking is only available for 2 days. So, next festival, don't forget to bring your spouse and children there. Mark your 2017 calendar.

To you, what is my first impression ?

I thought these are fishballs. So fine. So smooth. But I am wrong. These are tapioca balls.

Engkau ingat apa saya fikir bila ternampak berbola ini ?

Saya kata kepada pemasak, itu berbola ikan. Mereka terangkan kepada saya, itu berbola ubi.

The aborigines posed for my blog. 

Orang Asli bersetuju bergambar untuk dipaparkan disini sebagai galakan kepada anda untuk melawat pesta ini tahun depan.

They hope you can visit them during the same festival in 2017.
