From top clockwise - Banana fritters, curry puffs, vegetable cake and sesame topped hum chim peng, originally uploaded by Camemberu.
Packed home some tea-time snacks from Xiang Ji Fried Banana, which sells an assortment of deep-fried items (most are about S$0.70). These are best eaten hot.
Tastewise most of them were passable. All reasonably OK but nothing truly spectacular. However, the curry puffs sprung a surprise from the very first bite. It was a dense, heavyweight item with a spicy filling redolent of sweet potato and possibly five-spice powder. Hmm, seems a love it or hate it thing.

Hi
ReplyDeleteAnyone knows where to find the 3-in-1 fried nian gao. I know old airport rd got one stall named 吃爽爽. The 3-in-1 means that the nian gao is sandwiched with a slice of sweet potato and a slice of yam. The fried durian is nice too.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteAnyone knows how to make the deep fried batter for the banana and nian gao?
