Otak-otak

Otak-otak is a yummy food that comes from Malaysia and Indonesia. It's made from fish that is mixed with some yummy spices. The mixture is then wrapped in a banana leaf and cooked on the grill. When it's done, you can open the banana leaf to reveal the delicious otak-otak! It tastes a bit like a spicy, fishy cake. You can eat it by itself or with some tasty sauces like peanut sauce or sweet chili sauce.
