KUALA LUMPUR, April 5 (Xinhua) -- The Nyonya cuisine, perfectly combining Chinese cooking methods and Malaysian spices and ingredients, attracts many diners in Malacca, Malaysia.
The Baba-Nyonya, or Peranakans, are descendants of Chinese immigrants who intermarried with local Malays, creating a distinct cultural identity. Male descendants are called "Baba," while female descendants are called "Nyonya".
The Nyonya cuisine, rooted in the Baba-Nyonya community, exemplifies a rich fusion of Cantonese, Fujian, and local Malaysian flavors.
