Best Sambal Udang in PJ

Written by Updated ago

Sambal Udang, or Sambal Prawns in iEnglish is a dish that is commonly found in most Malay and Indonesian restaurants. A simple combination between two elements - sambal and prawns, is amazingly delicious, and a dish worthy of compliment to steamy rice. On some occasions, though it's more often that not, petai are used in the dish as well. This gives it a richer, deeper and slightly bitter edge that just helps cut through all that spice and richness. All and all, we know that you're craving for some now, and here is a list of the best sambal udang in PJ.

    All hail petai lovers! What happens when you combine prawns and petai together? Sambal Udang Petai, of course!

This simple dish is perfect for petai devotees.

    Village ParkPork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21Alco free 9fb1f2c65edc2c1eaf4e8b24402d108dd33cc2bc71f0fb0022a54c3c390a66c8

    Village Park may be famed for its nasi lemak and fried chicken, but their sambal udang too is quite the catch. It's a whole lot spicier than most and their prawns are really fresh. The sauce or rather, sambal they made is somewhat starchy or perhaps, gloopy instead of being watery. That's great especially when you wish to pour it over some rice. It's simple, spicy and goes great with almost any of their dishes. 

    Tips

    Cash only.

    Things to expect

    A standard restaurant with awesome nasi lemak.

    Best with

    Coke or iced lemon tea.

    Uncle Don'sPork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    Uncle Don's has been quite the hit lately, and there's only one reason for that - amazing food. Unlike most places, Uncle Don's version of the sambal udang is a whole lot sweeter, which caters to the non-spicy eaters out there (which by the way, is quite a number). Not only that, the portion is fairly huge with plenty of prawns served. It's sweet, savoury and ultimately addictive, and it works great with some warm rice. Add on a glass of Carlsberg and you're all set.

    The is gonna be a queue at night - definitely!

    A bar like ambiance.

    Mum's PlacePork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    Mum's Place, a restaurant you can call home - or well, something of that sort. It may not have the best design, nor do they have the best presentation in their dishes. What makes this place really good is simply its homeyness, affordability and of course, quality food. The sambal udang suffers no less, as it's well packed with a good heap of spices, which gives it that richness and heat. Apart from the sauce, the prawns too are cooked beautifully. It's a simple dish that packs in a whole lot of flavour, and something that you'll definitely not regret ordering. 

    Tips

    Cash only.

    Things to expect

    A cozy and homy place.

    The TranquerahPork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    The Tranquerah is a great place to be if you're in the mood for some awesome nyonya food. It's located in the quieter area of Kota Damansara - The Strand. Not the best location for a restaurant but hey, it's better than some other places. Anyway, onto their food. They have a wide range of delectable nyonya specialties, one of which includes the sambal udang. It has an incredible depth of flavour with all its seasoning and homemade sauce, with the prawns cooked to tender perfection. Not only that, the use of petai too gives it a richer, deeper and a whole lot more addictive taste profile. All and all, this dish is certainly worth the order and goes great with some warm white rice. 

    Tips

    Reservations available.

    Things to expect

    An old-fashion design with good service.

    Best with

    Fresh juices.
