Sambal Tuhau

tuhau

Tuhau included in the category of ginger. It is widely used in Sabahan dishes especially by the KadazanDusun community. Like other food ingredients, tuhau also can be mixed in any type of cooking such as soup or stir-fry. One of the most special and famous recipe is the sambal tuhau.
Sambal tuhau is a KadazanDusun traditional side dish. Its very flexible and can be served with various type of food, no matter traditional or modern dishes. Some people doesn’t like it due to the strong smell, but for sambal tuhau’s fan like me… that’s what make it really special... believe it or not… it’s also goes really well with the famous instant mi in Malaysia .. Maggie mee... yummy!
