Good day to all! Welcome back to Sg Dr Wellness! Its coach Alvin here and today in our local hawker series,, we're delving into the mouthwatering world of Nasi Lemak – the iconic South East Asian dish that's loved by many. But is it as unhealthy as it's often claimed to be? In this video, we'll unravel the details of Nasi Lemak's nutrition and explore how you can make it a healthier option.

Nasi Lemak, a versatile dish that can grace your breakfast table or be enjoyed any time of the day. The traditional plate boasts coconut milk rice, ikan bilis, cucumber slices, eggs, and a generous dose of that irresistible Nasi Lemak chili sauce. Plus, a variety of tempting sides offered by hawkers, from deep-fried chicken wings to fried fish and veggies.
Now, when you look at a traditional plate of Nasi Lemak, it rings in at around 500 calories, making up a quarter of your recommended daily intake. But here's the twist—it's often considered unhealthy.
However, there's another side to the story. The traditional Nasi Lemak is actually quite nutritious. It covers your major macronutrient requirements:
Coconut steam rice provides carbohydrates and fats. Eggs and peanuts offer protein. Cucumbers are a fantastic source of fiber.

So, what makes Nasi Lemak less healthy these days? Well, over time, it's been "modified" into the more flavorful version we all love. The addition of ala-carte deep-fried options, like chicken wings fish cakes and ham, tips the unhealthy meter into the red zone.
These deep-fried delights not only increase overall calories but also pack in high levels of fat, cholesterol, and sodium—traits not so friendly to our health.

The good news is, you can enjoy Nasi Lemak without the guilt. Here's how:
#1 Choose Healthier Sides: Opt for healthier sides like lightly stir-fried cabbage or other vegetables. Ask for extra hard-boiled eggs and cucumber slices to balance your meal.
#2 Reduce Condiments: Request fewer condiments to cut down on sodium intake.
#3 DIY Nasi Lemak: If you're making Nasi Lemak at home, use low-fat coconut milk to steam basmati rice. Air fry the anchovies and peanuts to minimize oil use. Go easy on the salt, and prepare an extra plate of vegetables to increase fiber content.

In conclusion, Nasi Lemak, in its traditional form, offers a balanced mix of nutrients. However, the modern, fried version has tipped the scales toward unhealthy. But by making mindful choices and opting for healthier sides, you can still savor this local delight without sacrificing your health.
