While not everyone’s cup of tea, many do enjoy the odd Marmite sandwich – two slices of bread and butter with a thin smattering of Marmite as a spread. Others stir in a little Marmite into their porridge for an added boost in taste.
For those who simply cannot tolerate the idea of eating a Marmite sandwich or having it in their porridge, there are other ways to enjoy this glossy, thick black spread made from yeast extract.
Sembang’s Marmite Chicken is a lip-smacking bite, to be enjoyed either with rice and a combination of other dishes or simply as a bite with a refreshing drink. Either way, it’s easy to make and delicious to eat.
