Jackie M - mouthwatering Malaysian cuisine

In between running a restaurant, preparing a range of frozen meals and curry pastes, making media appearances and writing various blogs, the amazing Jackie M finds time to feed the crowds every Saturday at her Orange Grove Markets stall at Leichhardt in Sydney.

I had read and heard many good things about Jackie's cooking, particularly her Char Kway Teow and Roti. A container of Jackie's freshly made Roti Kaya (Roti with Coconut and Pandan Jam) disappeared before I had the chance to photograph it for this snippet. Indeed, it was so delicious, Peter and I couldn't help but tuck in immediately.

If you can't make it to Leichhardt, Jackie's food is also available from The Happy Hawker stalls at the Concord Hospital Market, Marrickville Markets and Hornsby-Kurringai Hospital Markets. Jackie's restaurant is at 85 Majors Bay Road, Concord and is open from 5.00-10.00pm Thursday to Saturday. Bear in mind that reservations are limited!

Jackie M's Roti Kaya - deliciously good!

Jackie M has some of the best Malaysian food that I've ever tasted. Her CKT is TO DIE FOR and the roti is spectacular beyond words. Oh, and the Radish Cake...and the Cendol. She's a wonderful wonderful cook.

Oh, I wish we had managed to sample some of the CKT, Mel! The roti, well, I slurped it so quickly and ended up with it down the front of my blouse too. It was yummy!
