Here is a marriage of 2 of my most favorite dishes; Nasi Lemak & Pizza.
So I whipped up an East meets West dish of Nasi Lemak Pizza...without the Nasi actually.
I used coconut oil instead of olive oil and I added coconut cream to the pizza dough, and the result is a soft and fragrant pizza dough.
Don't let the long list of ingredients scare you off, especially with the convenience of Prima Taste Authentic Asia Cooking Sauces, this fusion pizza is not only easy to prepare, it is delicious to savour! Enjoy the best of both worlds!
