Yellow rice and 'Opor Ayam kacang' which are only served at Istana Johor can now be enjoyed by passengers of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) for selected destinations from today until end of this year.

In addition, seven more exclusive menus from the palace's kitchen, namely, 'Nasi Tumpang', 'Beef on Toast', 'Udang Masak Merah', 'Grilled Beef Tenderloin Patty', 'Dadar Pahang', 'Ayam Panggang Johor' and 'Puding Raja with Jala Emas' would also be served to the passengers.

MAS Manager of In-Flight Food and Beverages, Chef Zahiddin Dris said the menus were the result of cooperation between MAS and Tengku Puan Pahang, Tunku Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah.

He said the menus would be served to first and business class passengers on selected flights including London, Paris, Amsterdam, Perth, Auckland, Bangkok and Jakarta.

"The royal menu will present the taste of the Tengku Puan Pahang and simultaneously introduce the delights of the palace in this country to the world," he said.

He said told this to Bernama at a demonstration of exclusive cooking from Istana Johor by Tengku Azizah at the 2015 Kuala Lumpur Big Kitchen Festival at Merdeka Square here, Sunday.

During the event, Tengku Puan Pahang, dressed like a chef, cooked the yellow rice and 'Opor Ayam Kacang' dish using ingredients such as boiled chicken, ground nuts and Malay herbs and spices, coconut milk and onions.

Putting aside protocol, Her Highness shared her recipes and demonstrated how to prepare the special cuisines to about 750 local and foreign guests.

During the 20-minute demonstration, Tengku Puan Pahang handled the cooking area smoothly and in an orderly manner revealing her skills in cooking.
