About this dish

Katong laksa is a variant of laksa lemak inspired by the Peranakans who live in the precinct of Katong in Singapore. It has an orange-yellow-coloured spicy soup stock, flavoured with coconut milk and dried shrimp, topped with ingredients like cockles, prawns and fish cake. The defining feature of Katong laksa is that the entire dish can be eaten with a spoon alone, without chopsticks or a fork, as the noodles are normally cut up into smaller pieces.
