Fried "Carrot" Cake

No actual carrots were used in this dish. White radish ( daikon ) were used to make the cake.



Recipe for the cake is from Rasa Malaysia. Here is the link to the recipe:

Then fried with the following ingredients: 

Garlic, sweet chye-por (pickled radish), egg, dried shrimp, spring onions, sweet black sauce & light soya sauce. 

Preparation method: 
1. Heat up the oil in the hot pan (non-stick is preferred). Then add the garlic & dried shrimps , fry until fragrant.
2. Add the diced raddish cake. (1" cube approx.). Fry a little while. 
3. Add the sweet chye-por. Fry a little while. Then add some oil, then cracked some eggs into the mixture. Let them cook for a while before stiring the mixture to get the slightly burnt eggs.
4. Season with light soya sauce & black soya to taste. Stir in the spring onions before dish out. 
5. Serve with your favourite chili sauce / sambal.

Bon appétit ! 

Chin's notes: 
1. The radish cake is best to prepare a day ahead. 
2. I did not wait for the radish to cool before adding to the rice flour mix. 
3. I used the water from cooking the daikon instead of plain water. I'm sure there are some nutrient from the cooking the daikon. :)
