In Malaysia, Iftar is called 'berbuka puasa', which can be literally translated "to open the fast". After breaking the fast with traditional dates and water, people indulge in bandung drink, sugarcane juice, soybean milk mixed with grass jelly, nasi lemak, laksa, ayampercik, chicken rice, satay and popiah.
Night markets are also popular dining spots after sunset, open to all, serving the masses as they break the daylong fast with affordable street food feasts. So feast and indulge in your favourite iftar delicacies this Ramadan as it is very important to replace the energy lost during the day and to start the next day of fasting well-hydrated.
