Otak-otak is fish cake from Malaysia. Muar, a small town located at Johor is particularly famous for it. It is made by mixing fish paste with a mixture of spices, including chilies, garlic, shallots, turmeric, lemon grass and coconut milk. The mixture is wrapped in banana leaf and grilled or steamed it. Other versions of otak-otak also utilize crab meat, prawn meat, cuttlefish, fish head or chicken.
