INDIAN ROJAK

Singaporean favourites, Indian Rojak, many of us simply love and growing up with these hawker food such as Mee goreng , mutton soup and more.

Indian rojak is also a famous local Malaysian Street food also known as Pasembur especially in  Penang and many parts of Malaysia. In Singapore, the fritters are quite different, the colour of the gravy are always red as most of the hawkers add food colouring in their cooking. One of the best Indian rojak which I've ever had, was at Rasa Singapura Food Centre at Orchard Tanglin.

While making these, I've learned creating various types of flavours for fritters and other ingredients that I used. Most important is making a good rojak gravy or sauce, there's some difference, I've skipped the use of chillie powder or chillie flakes, colouring and it's made from the basic fresh ingredients. 

Make these with friends or family members, it's fun bonding, save your time and energy. Pick any favourite  ingredients squids, fish cake, beancurd with prawns, various fritters and a long list. I've created step by step in this videos, create and improve as you go along, I think it will be a success to you too.

Things to note, the basic dough mixture I've made in two batches resulted with two big bowls of fried fritters and that's a lot. The servings were enough for over 25 persons and still had some leftovers.

Prawn Fritters and Coconut Fritters are perfect for breakfast or an evening snacks. Prawn fritters when serve with a homemade chillie sauce taste absolutely delicious. If the fritters not round in shape it's fine, more practice needed that's include myself too.

Lot of flavours and kinds of fritters which we can create with the dough mixtures, if we look and observe .... what's in ....the 'rojak stalls' ....  we can get lots of ideas.

The Indian rojak sauce created based on my tastebuds, many variations and I'm happy with it!

Overall, I hope these videos may give better ideas making it less than the original recipes. Good planing will make everything goes easy, all the best and happy cooking!!

That's all for now, have great holiday this Hari Raya Haji here in Singapore with your loved ones and a happy weekend to everyone . My wish to all muslims have a happy and blessed Eid-ul Adha. May peace and joy embrace us forever and stay blessed always ... Ameen. Wishing all an easy and happy days ahead and thank you for coming by.
