  2. Hi, Sonia!

    Your spicy tomato chicken looks delish! Is it ok to try it with Malaysian curry powder instead of turmeric? It's what I have right now. Thanks for sharing your recipe and more power!

    XOXO

  4. I don't eat chicken because I'm a vegan but the sauce looks interesting and I just might have to try and make a tofu version of this! Thanks for the idea! I hopped over from another blog.

  7. This is my favorite. In the 80s, I used to patronise Nasi Tomato Ismalia located at Taman Sardon, Penang. Missed it so much. I wonder whether they are still in business or otherwise.
