ラクサ is a popular noodle soup dish originating from Malaysia and Singapore. It features a rich and spicy coconut milk broth, often made with a blend of spices, herbs, and shrimp paste. The dish typically includes rice noodles, tofu, and various proteins like chicken or prawns, garnished with fresh herbs and lime. There are different variations of ラクサ, with the two main types being Curry Laksa and Asam Laksa. Curry Laksa has a creamy, coconut-based soup, while Asam Laksa is sour and fish-based, using tamarind for its distinctive flavor. Both versions are beloved for their unique tastes and aromatic qualities.
