Lying in the Straits of Malacca is the Malaysian island of Penang. The capital Georgetown is a mosaic of cultures with Chinese, Malay and India Towns that preserve their traditional dishes but also embrace the love of fusion food.

Ainsley’s quest this episode is to find out why Penang has become a food lover’s paradise. Here he meets foodies who come from each of the major communities living in Penang to find out what their people brought to the party – and discover how the world’s original fusion cuisine was born.
Ainsley starts with the classics, he wants to try Satay and Coconut rich Laksas in the place where they were made famous but on a trip into the countryside he also discovers how local people preserve traditional recipes, like Grilled Stingray with fiery sambals, sticky Chicken Ayam and Black Pepper Crab.

Penang isn’t a place where curry comes in powder form and coconut milk isn’t from a tin. The mantra here is fresh and local. Ainsley’s ‘Sayer Lodeh’ vegetable curry begins with a stone ground paste of fresh spices and aromatic roots and coconuts ground to order in the market that morning.
Penang is famed for its seafood and Ainsley takes the opportunity to cook giant Malay Black Pepper Prawns. And at Café Lidiana he makes a hot and citrusy Mango salad with the owner Mak Lal, her business was wiped out by the Tsunami in 2004 but is back on its feet now and busier than ever.
But before he heads home Ainsley discovers how to make an authentic Penang Fish Laksa from scratch. It’s not a quick process but every stage has a purpose, grinding spices, balancing sweet and sour and adding fresh herbs and salads at the very end. It’s a sensory explosion, complex flavours and textures and in as Ainsley says this is the “Big Hello and Welcome to Penang!”.
