Foods like the Greek extra virgin olive oil and table olives could be enjoyed with salads, grilled fish, roasted chicken, and other local cuisine, while foods such as Corinthian raisins and dried fruits from Latvia could be added to rice-based foods such as nasi minyak and briyani. Greek Graviera cheese could also be added to sandwiches, pastries, salads, and other fusion dishes in Malaysia.
