Ways this is made

• Curry laksa laksa lemak The coconut-curry laksa, rich rather than sour.
• Laksa Johor A Johor laksa served with spaghetti-like noodles in a fish and coconut gravy.
• Sarawak laksa A Sarawak broth built on a sambal-and-spice paste with coconut and tamarind, distinct from both the Penang and the curry lines.
