This dish can only be found in Brunei...the Ambuyat...it is hot water poured onto sago powder and after constant mixing, the starchy glue-like substance appeared...Another special local way to eat this stuff...you hold the wooden stick, chandas, that is split into two ends at the tip and dip the stick into the ambuyat and start turning to form one big lump...the bigger the better...and you must use the sauce made of binjai (local mango like fruit) and swallow the lump into your tummy...swallow...not chew...first time tasting this...you have a feel of eating glue...hmm...
This ambuyat is served along with many side dishes like spicy beef, fried chicken, fried vegetables...I think I will stick to the fried chicken...hmm...
Btw, the ambuyat must be eaten while warm...that's why the table is so messy...because the side dishes came much later...
