Bacon and yam roll




It seems that some dishes finish fast more quickly than others. Yam wrapped with bacon, for instance. They are the first to be eaten when they are served on the dinner table. It truly is too good to resist.

If you love bacon, you will enjoy these yam and bacon rolls. There are quite a lot of Chinese dishes using yam as the main ingredients. This yam-flavored meat roll with Western elements still retains the Chinese style will going to make you eat more. I even serve this dish as one of my Chinese New Year dishes.

It is crucial to specify how to cook the ingredients when wrapping anything in bacon. When cooking a quick-cooking food, like asparagus or enoki mushroom, you want to be careful not to overcook the vegetable. It is likely that the bacon will not cook through as quickly as the food inside. Should I prepare the yam ahead of time for this recipe? Some people prefer to deep fry their yams, while others prefer to boil them in water to make them softer and easier to cook. No, I don't use these two approaches.  I roll up the yam with bacon and deep-fried it together.

Does the bacon need to dip in the egg before frying? Yes, in order to have a crispy texture with my bacon roll. I dip my bacon roll in the egg mixture and coated with corn starch well before frying. This process will help the flour stick on the bacon rolls, and the double coating keeps the bacon safe from the hot oil's direct heat while producing a layer of crispy batter.  


When frying the bacon yam roll, one step needs to be watched carefully. The bacon yam rolls must be fried twice. The secret to extremely crispy bacon yam roll is double frying. That evaporation process is helped by double frying. Additional water evaporates from the bacon by allowing them to cool and rest in between dipping them in the oil. The remaining water evaporates as you put it back in the second time, allowing the bacon roll to crisp and brown before they overcook.

My version of the bacon-wrapped yam is a huge hit with everybody!  I normally dip my bacon yam roll with my homemade sauce which tastes a little bit spicy, tangy, salty and a hint of sweetness.  What's not to enjoy? 

Trust me. This bacon yam roll will impress your family or your guests!

Ondeh-Ondeh in 3 flavour (椰丝球)

Today made a popular dessert in Malaysia, “Ondeh Ondeh”, a type of Nyonya recipe. It is also called “Buah Melaka” because it looks like the fruit of the Malacca tree. The procedure of making is easy. The flavoured glutinous rice balls have grated fresh coconut on the outside and melting Gula Melaka, or palm sugar, inside. The white, milky coconut shreds and little balls of various colours appear fresh and natural. and has a charming appearance. The glutinous rice balls, soft glutinous and chewy are determined by the amount of water and cooking time. The softer the rice balls, the more water and more time it boiled. We like our coconut shreds to be moist and crisp, the melted Gula Melaka to be rich and flavorful, and the texture to be somewhat mushy and sticky. It seems like the nostalgic flavour of my childhood is returning. In addition to the traditional pandan flavour, I have included instructions for making it with sweet potatoes and pumpkin. Of all the flavours of "ondeh...

Half a year has flown by in the blink of an eye, and it's almost Mid-Autumn Festival. It is fall in October this year. I've tried quite a few of jelly mooncakes last year. So, this year I am going to share some of jelly mooncakes that I love. Making jelly mooncakes isn't difficult, and I'm always eagerly anticipating the finished product, because there are always so many surprises when I cut into it.

Puding Lumut or “moss pudding is a type of jelly or jelly pudding originating from Indonesia, make with a mixture of agar-agar powder, eggs, coconut milk and sugar which is cooked until it forms a moss like mass. Today I am going to transform it into a mooncake.   Other than the beautiful moss from cooking and stirring the mixture. The white layer part that looks like shredded coconut which is actually made from the mixture of agar powder, fresh coconut water and coconut milk. Grate it after it is set...

Braised Pork Belly Char Siu on Stove

  Grilling char Siu is time-consuming? Yes, indeed!! The marinating and cooking steps involved in grilling char Siu might take a lot of time.   In order to allow the flavors to seep into the meat, the traditional process involves marinating the pork for a few hours, often overnight.   Additionally, grilling might take some time, particularly if you want that distinctive char. And also create a crispy surface and smoky flavor. You might say can make char siu, or Chinese BBQ pork with oven baking, or air frying. Oven baking produces an excellent crust and a balance of juiciness. Air fryer is the quickest way to produce a crispy outside and a soft within, although it might not cook as uniformly as oven baking. Today I am sharing a super easy stove top version. You even get a lovely sauce to go with it, and the results are just incredible. It lacks charred or roasted flavor of charcoal because it is cooked entirely on the hob.   Trust me, this method is definitely ...
