Asam pedas (Malay for "sour spicy"; ) is a traditional sour and spicy gulai commonly found in Southeast Asia, particularly in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. The dish is typically associated with Malay, Minangkabau, Acehnese and Peranakan cuisines, and is prepared using various types of seafood or freshwater fish.
The broth is made with a combination of chillies and spices, with the sour element derived from ingredients such as tamarind, asam keping (dried Garcinia slices) or lime juice, depending on regional variations. Regional names for the dish include asam padeh (Minangkabau), asam keueung (Acehnese) and gerang asam (Baba Malay or Peranakan).
