Sarsi chicken wings



I'm sure that many of you food lovers have heared of Cola chicken wings which as the name implies, has coca cola in those wings.  But I've cooked mine with Sarsi, with leftover sarsi from Sarsi Bundt cake and hence 'Sarsi chicken wings' came into being.   Don't misjudge these skinny undernourished looking wings, they're free range chicken wings that's why.  These are more lean but they're tasty, finger-licking good and can be served as finger food or as a snack.



 











These yummy wings can be served with white rice but  I served mine with wholemeal  bread and some salad....another easy all-round meal!

    1. No, I hardly go to Kg Simee market, bought them from my usual market place near my house. The lady has both farm chicken and free-range chicken wings and legs.

Char Siew Pau ~ 蒸叉烧包

I have been itching to try out a Pau recipe and vaguely remember that I did make it once, long, long ago.  So I  got hold of my old file of recipes and finally managed to retrieve it.  I did it recently and must say that I'm satisfied with the result.  The texture of the Pau was soft and a bit chewy, wholesome and filling too.  Naturally, they didn't look so nice and round like the ones sold in the dim sum restaurants, but nonetheless I think homemade ones can be just as delectable as well.
