Nasi Baryani @ Mohd Shah in Batu Pahat, Johor, Malaysia

The famous Mohd Shah Nasi Baryani is one of the most written about nasi baryani shops in Malaysia’s nasi baryani Capital, Batu Pahat. (The other famed shop is Nasi Bariani Power.)

Fortunately, locating Mohd Shah Nasi Baryani is not hard. Mohd Shah is stall M14 in the Kompleks Niaga Benteng Peserai food centre directly opposite Putra Specialist Hospital. The popular food centre is along Jalan Bakau Condong near the bridge over Sungei Batu Pahat (river). Batu Pahat town has two bridges over Batu Pahat river – this is the one in the north.

The very reasonable RM6 plate comes with a big piece of mutton rendang with bone on and a large heap of top quality Basmati rice. No frills, no distracting extras and add ons. Each long grain of Basmati rice is coated with fragrant spices and ghee. The slightly nutty rice is not overly oily.

The biggest kick of eating nasi baryani at Mohd Shah comes from the kambing (mutton) rendang.

The entire piece of mutton is saturated with fragrance and flavour. The mutton is cooked many hours in coconut milk and hot spices until every fibre is infused with the perfume of coconut and spices. The delicious mutton rendang is tender and moist inside.

Nasi Baryani Mohd Shah is definitely a Must Try for nasi baryani fans.
