Malaysian Deli is a halal Malaysian restaurant at 338 Brockley Road in Brockley. Its cooking draws particularly on the home style food of Kelantan, balancing coconut, lemongrass, galangal, lime leaf and chilli across comforting dishes that reflect the depth and variety of Malaysia’s everyday food traditions.
Roti canai is a natural starting point, pairing flaky bread with curry sauce, while gado gado combines vegetables with a rich peanut dressing. Sambal adds a lively chilli note across the menu, and cooling accompaniments help balance the fragrant spices and savoury sauces before the larger rice and curry dishes arrive.
Beef or chicken rendang is slowly cooked with coconut, lemongrass, galangal and lime leaf until the sauce becomes concentrated and aromatic. Kari Melayu offers another deeply seasoned curry, while percik uses a coconut and lemongrass sauce. Vegetarian diners can choose dishes such as tofu with kuah kacang peanut sauce.
Nasi lemak brings coconut and pandan scented rice together with sambal, peanuts, anchovies, egg and cucumber. Nasi kerabu uses naturally blue flower rice and a collection of fresh accompaniments, while coconut rice can be paired with a preferred curry or vegetable dish. Together, these combinations make the menu well suited to exploring several contrasting Malaysian flavours.
