About gulai otak
Indonesian curry-like dish originating from West Sumatra
Gulai is a type of spiced stew commonly found in the culinary traditions of Malaysia, Indonesia and other parts of Maritime Southeast Asia, including Brunei, Singapore and southern Thailand. Closely associated with both Malay and Minangkabau cuisines, it is characterised by a rich, aromatic sauce made from coconut milk and a blend of ground spices, typically including turmeric, coriander, chilli and other local aromatics. Gulai is usually prepared with meat, fish, offal or vegetables and is typically served with rice. In English, it is sometimes described as Malay curry or Indonesian curry.
