  • Master chef Susur Lee welcomes us to Lee Restaurant and the adjoining Lee Lounge in downtown Toronto for a glimpse into his personality but more importantly, his kitchen. There he shows us how to prepare his signature dish, Singaporean Slaw. It's a fresh year-round dish that features 18 ingredients that all add up to one "party in your mouth."Related: Susur Lee's Watermelon Salad

    Singapore Slaw is literally the best salad I've ever had. Doesn't even taste like salad really, more like a pad thai but without the noodles and instead of the tamarind sauce, you get a sweet, fruity taste from the sauces he uses. Tastes crunchy, sweet, fresh, citrusy. Very Thai and Vietnamese inspired. Goes really well with grilled salmon. So damn good.

  • @swicheroo1
    @swicheroo1 3 роки тому +20

    The salad looks amazing. Of course, with these fine dining places, the trick with revealing recipes is that they involve so many steps and ingredients, it's almost impossible to replicate...or barely worthwhile. My friend--a notable food celebrity--just gave me the Thomas Keller cookbook. She couldn't get past the infusions. Everything was slave labor. I like the idea of two types of dressings meeting in the middle, though...and I'll try to do that!

    This slaw is based on Yu Sheng which is traditionally eaten during Chinese New Year in Singapore. The tossing is for prosperity and blessings but really I'm just here for the taste. I wanna be able to make my own version to enjoy any time of the year.
