Hot Tips

Dried vs. fresh herbs

When substituting dried herbs for fresh herbs use approximately a third of the suggested quantity, as the dried herbs will tend to be more pungent. However, the older the dried herbs the less flavour they will have, so taste as you go.

Glossary

Yau Jar Kwai or Crispy Crueller

A fried dough cooked on Singapore, its best eaten fresh and hot - with a black coffee for breakfast or chopped and added to rojak or Chinese congee for extra crunch.
