SAJIAN DARUL EHSAN FOR BUKA PUASA AT MERCURE KL GLENMARIE

 


Heritage food from the nine districts of Selangor steal the limelight at "Sajian Darul Ehsan" buffet by Mercure Kuala Lumpur Glenmarie come Ramadan this year. 
Crafted by Executive Chef Zaharullail Ashari or Chef Awie, the spread pays tribute to the land and the people of Selangor at Warna, the All-Day Dining restaurant, from 14 March to 7 April 2024.

Chef Awie says “Sajian Darul Ehsan is inspired by the rich culinary diversity of Selangor. Darul Ehsan, meaning 'Abode of Sincerity' pays tribute to the land and its people. From the resilience of Sambal Taun, symbolising the ability to thrive against the odds, to Nasi Ambeng, a dish echoing togetherness and authenticity, each item reflects a chapter of my culinary journey and resonating the true essence of family."

The chef’s favourite signature dishes to sample include:


Nasi Ambeng
One of Selangor's heritage foods, this communal dining offering consists of white rice surrounded by fried noodles, soy or turmeric and lemongrass braised chicken, serunding ayam (coconut and chicken floss), pergedil (potato and herb patties), Javanese stir-fried beans, mixed beancurd with glass noodles, fried tempeh, and salted fish.

Punten
A Selangor Javanese snack of quenelle-shaped soft mashed cooked rice eaten with Sambal Hijau Ikan Bilis (spicy anchovies and green chili dip). The rice quenelles are formed using a plastic spoon due to the rice stickiness. For the spicy-hot green sambal, little anchovies are used for  its savouriness with a paste of green chillies and bird's eye chillies, and coconut milk to make it. 
Sambal Taun
Also known as Sambal Tahun, this Javanese heritage dish, prevalent in the Sabak Bernam district, is similar to masak lemak cili api. Pounded galangal, kampung chilli padi and coconut milk are cooked with beef skin, beef tripe, cockles or anchovies. Tempe and black eye beans are also included to add greater substance. This dish is meant to last as traditionally matriarchs will just add more coconut milk and chillies to it.
Kambing Salai and Ayam Bakar Perchik
Most diners will be drawn to sample the whole roasted lamb and  aromatic spice-infused roasted chicken. Chef Awie explains the spices in the rub and marinade used transcend local boundaries to elevate its aroma and taste.

Ikan Purbakala
This dish captures the chef’s personal journey in overcoming life's challenges and celebrating his triumphs. Sourcing the freshest seabass from the fishing villages of Selangor like Sekinchan and Klang, the fish is accentuated with 27 local herbs and spices, stuffed then deep-fried with beaten eggs.

Wadai Kipeng
A sweet embodiment of Chef Awie's Banjarese heritage in Sabak Bernam, this hot dessert of glutinous rice flour dumplings with sweet pandan-flavoured broth of coconut milk and palm sugar is simple yet heartwarming.
Other tempting specialities for buka puasa include Dates, Seafood on Ice, Rojak Kelang, Assorted Kerabu, Gulai Kawah, Ikan Bakar (grilled fish), Rendang with Ketupat and Serunding, Shawarma, Roti John and Satay among others. 
In addition, Ayam Goreng Rempah, Fried Kway Teow, Ayam Masak Merah, Murtabak and Assorted Fried Fritters await.

Sweet succour in the form of Bubur Cha Cha, Apam Balik, Assorted Kuih, Cendol, Fresh Fruits, and Chilled Beverages wrap up the meal on a high.
Early birds can enjoy an exclusive rate of RM118+ per adult for Mercure’s "Sajian Darul Ehsan" Ramadan Buffet (6.30 pm-10.30 pm). Voucher purchases must be made before 14 March 2024.
