The Irresistible Mee Kari of SK Gual To’Deh’s Hari Raya Celebration

The aroma of rich spices and creamy coconut milk fills the teacher staff room as the beloved Mee Kari takes center stage during our Hari Raya festivities. This iconic dish, a harmonious blend of Malay and Indian flavors, is a highlight of celebrations, bringing teachers together in a joyful feast.

The golden-yellow curry broth, simmered to perfection, is the soul of this dish. Fragrant with turmeric, lemongrass, and ginger, the curry is luxuriously creamy from coconut milk, with just the right kick of chili for warmth. Tender chunks of chicken or beef soak up the spices, while potatoes add a comforting softness. Served over springy yellow noodles, the dish is crowned with a medley of toppings: crunchy bean sprouts, fresh cilantro, crispy fried shallots, and a squeeze of zesty lime to brighten every bite.

What makes our staff room’s Mee Kari special is the heartwarming effort behind it. Prepared with care by our school’s kitchen team or contributed by generous colleagues, it symbolizes unity and gratitude. As teachers gather around, sharing stories and laughter over steaming bowls, the meal becomes more than food—it’s a celebration of togetherness and cultural pride.For many of us, this annual treat is a delicious reminder of Hari Raya’s spirit: generosity, joy, and the simple pleasure of a well-loved dish. Whether enjoyed as a hearty breakfast or a shared lunch, the Mee Kari at SK Gual To’Deh is a flavor-packed tradition we eagerly anticipate each year.

Selamat Hari Raya to all who celebrate! May our bonds grow stronger over every delicious spoonful.
