Teochew bak zhang (glutinous rice dumplings) 肉粽 | Dumpling festival
My husband's grandma makes *the best* dumplings - they’re refined over decades of practice - and they are unlike any I’ve tried in that they have, tucked away in one corner of the pyramid, red bean paste wrapped in caul fat.
In glutinous rice dumplings, caul fat’s function is to keep the red bean paste from smearing all over the other ingredients, consolidating it in one spot for a sweet hit. It might sound odd to have sweet bean paste in a savoury pork dumpling, but it seems that the boundary between sweet and savoury has always been a fluid one in Asian cuisines.

Confinement chicken wine soup 鸡酒 | A Cantonese recipe from my mom
Переглядів 5 тис.Рік тому
Broadly speaking, the attitudes of the West and the Cantonese towards soup-making are sharply contrasting. The Cantonese tend to prefer a cleaner taste to meat broths, while soups in the West tend to have strong, aromatic, and savoury flavours. Think about French onion soup, which hinges on caramelization, a layering of herbs, and a rich beef broth. You top the finished dish with a crunchy crou...
Mui choy kau yoke 梅菜扣肉 | Hakka pork belly with preserved vegetables
Переглядів 2,2 тис.Рік тому
The uses of mui choy in a Chinese kitchen are manifold. At its simplest, it can be simmered in water to produce a vegetarian broth. It can also be used in stir-fries, as a stuffing for buns, or incorporated into steamed meat patties. These days, however, preserved vegetables are no longer as central to the diet as they once were, and are more likely to show up as a condiment with porridge, rath...
Tau Yu Bak (Pork Belly Braised in Soy Sauce)
Переглядів 18 тис.3 роки тому
Every Chinese kid growing up in Singaporean would have had this on the table in some form. The ultimate comfort dish. A good tau yu bak has well-caramelized meat, is fragrant from soy sauce and the spices, and is tender but still has a bite. Some people also refer to this dish as lor bak, though the gravy for lor bak tends to be watery and less reduced. Pork belly is the most common cut used, b...
ABC Soup | Easiest Chinese Soup (Under 1 Hour)
Переглядів 80 тис.3 роки тому
ABC soup is one of those classic everyday dishes that Singaporeans cook when first learning to prepare meals for themselves. It is so ubiquitous that the supermarket often sells its ingredients all cut up and ready for the home cook. While every home has a different version of this dish, most share some common ingredients - carrot, some form of meat, corn, potatoes, and onion. I’m not a fan of ...
Mee Soto with Begedil (Plus a Little About Me)
Переглядів 7 тис.3 роки тому
The heartbeat of Singaporean cooking, in my opinion, is rempah. Rempah is a fine paste of onions, garlic, lemongrass, turmeric, galangal, candlenuts and often a blend of finely ground spices. One of my biggest takeaways from Candlenut was understanding how to coax flavour out of rempah and to taste the difference between a ‘raw’ spice paste and one that is sufficiently fried. Mee soto is a dish...
Steamed Ginger and Sesame Oil Chicken (麻油鸡) | Quick & Easy Confinement Dish
Переглядів 22 тис.3 роки тому
Whenever my stomach feels too bloated or when I want to enjoy the unadulterated flavour of chicken, I like to eat steamed chicken. The combination of ginger and sesame oil is a classic Cantonese one, one that gets rid of the ‘wind’ in the stomach and warms the body. Because of that, this could be a confinement dish. The Peranakans have their own version of this which they call muar eu kay. Like...
Fried Carrot Cake (Cai Tao Kueh) | A Singaporean Hawker Classic
Переглядів 6 тис.3 роки тому
Happy National Day! Sharing a video tutorial for the very beloved hawker dish fried carrot cake (cai tao kueh) today. It might seem odd that there is no carrot in this dish, but ‘carrot’ here refers to daikon, known as white carrot in Mandarin. There are two versions - the white version has a slightly crisp texture, while the black variant has a good balance of sweet and salty. I am no cai tao ...
Sambal Tumis (Fried Chilli Paste) | For Nasi Lemak, Sambal Stingray, Sambal Kang Kong and more!
Переглядів 113 тис.3 роки тому
There are few things more central to a Singaporean table than sambal. Sambal is a loose term used to refer to a chilli-based condiment in countries such as Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. In a spice-obsessed country such as Singapore, each hawker dish is paired with its sambal. Each sambal has its own unique blend of ingredients, but most have garlic, shallots and chillies as its backbone. F...
Begedils with Minced Beef | Fried Potato Patties
Переглядів 2 тис.3 роки тому
For some reason, the begedils that I’ve eaten at nasi padang stalls don’t usually have meat in them, so I’ve been wanting to try making my own with minced beef. At home, I usually boil the potatoes for ease, but I thought this time around I’d try deep-frying them, the traditional way. I really loved the results - just a few ingredients, but the extra care that comes from browning the beef, maki...
Kadhi Pakora | Onion Fritters in Chickpea Flour & Yogurt Sauce
Переглядів 6083 роки тому
Kadhi is a yogurt sauce that is thickened with chickpea flour, while pakora are fritters made from chickpea flour. There are a few tips I picked up from the net about making good pakoras: 1) A pinch of baking soda serves as a leavening agent as it reacts with the liquid in the batter to create gas bubbles that are responsible for adding lightness to the final fried product. 2) Adding hot oil in...
Ayam Salai Masak Lemak Cili Padi | Smoked Chicken Cooked in a Turmeric Gravy
Переглядів 1,2 тис.3 роки тому
I first learnt about this dish from Nor Hadayah who was my guest on the podcast - she told me about how adding smoked chicken or beef to lemak cili padi gravy takes the dish to the next level. Smoking is such a great way to boost flavour and, rather than using charcoal, I like using smoking in a wok for its ease. The wok is usually lined with foil and a mixture of rice, sugar, tea leaves, and o...
Indian Muslim Mutton Curry
Переглядів 1,2 тис.3 роки тому
In Singapore, we are lucky to have so many versions of curry. The Malay-style curries that are rich with coconut milk, the gravy-like Hainanese curry that vendors slather on rice, tangy Eurasian curries made sometimes with mustard… the list goes on. What I find unique about Indian curries is the smaller quantities of liquid used compared to other curries, the cooking of a masala rather than a r...
Bak Tong Gou | Steamed White Sugar Kueh

The kueh I probably ate more than any other in my childhood is not ang ku kueh or kueh salat, but bak tong gou, a fermented kueh made simply with rice flour and white sugar. I just cannot get enough of the smell of fermented rice flour and QQ texture. It might seem like a straightforward recipe to make, but is anything but. I’ve attempted this kueh multiple times and there are two key things th...
Indian-Style Ikan Kicap | Fish Simmered in Kecap Manis
Переглядів 2,9 тис.3 роки тому
As I grow older, I find myself enjoying fish more than meat, and one of my favourite ways with fish is to deep-fry, then braise in soy sauce. Deep-frying a fish that has been dusted with cornstarch before “braising” is not about getting crispy fish - it is a technique that allows the sauce to cling onto the fish. When I first watched Devagi Sanmugam and Audra Morrice prepare this on IG Live, I ...

    Hallo , what kinda of wok you are using ? And could you please share the brand of the salt ? I tried today but i made a hole in my steel wok when stir frying the salt ( more like corrosion caused by the salt ) , then i add aluminium foil as an extra layer , and it melt to pieces when in contact with the salt , and produce strong chemical odor , thank you😊

    Hmmmm... Looks good, BUT, I don't like the wet, soft texture with moist juices. I am looking for the Original Kakka Salted Chicken, which is like the Hainanese Poached Chicken, and then rubbed salt on imthe whole chicken... in and out... then put into an Oven to burnt it, to get a drier texture... and it has a slightly Brownish Yellow look, compared to the White Hainanese Chicken. Hope one of you can recommebd where to get in Singapore..( it is all over Guangzhou, China )
