Deep-fried to golden perfection and filled to the brim with juicy chicken and flavourful potato curry, Malaysia’s famous curry puff has recently been ranked by Taste Atlas as one of the 5th best pastries in the world!
Curry Puff Listed As 5th Most Delicious Pastry Out Of 100 In The World
As an international lifestyle and food travel guide, Taste Atlas adds truth by stating that the curry puff “quickly became popular outside Malaysia, especially in Thailand and Singapore.” By being an adored breakfast staple and tea-time snack, the curry puff has definitely won the hearts of many. It comes in hot, beating the croissant, kunafah, pineapple bun and many other pastries in the top 100 list.
“Today there are numerous versions of the curry puff, so instead of potato and chicken curry, it can be filled with various other ingredients such as tuna, sardines and beef rendang,” wrote Taste Atlas.
