Hi Augmum,

I'd like to try your recipe. For the preserved veg, can I buy it at the supermarket? Any particular brand? I've seen the salty one, not the sweet one.

For the tomato sauce, is that the canned one or ketchup?

Thanks! The dish looks really delicious.

jtoh, so did u try out my recipe of 梅菜扣肉 ??
i remember the other time u were asking for the ingredients, any feedback for me ??

Augmum:

happy mama,i bot the dark caramel one.

dark sauce.....wonder is that sweet sauce.
last 2 days, i just went to Giant supermarket (at tampines) to buy one,
the shelf has only few bottles left....i saw quite a number b4 the CNY.
fyi, this dark sauce is not salty at all, u can try it b4 adding it to your cooking.

Thanks Augmum. I went to NTUC Finest at Bt Timah this morning but they don't carry this brand. Looks like must get it from Giant.

Actually I bought ingredients to try your recipe. Happily shopped for all the ingredients (except the black sauce since I wasn't sure, so decided to use my own first).

Then when I reached home and was going through the recipe, I realised I forgot to buy MEI CAI! How to make Mei Cai Kou Rou withtout the Mei Cai?! So I ended up tweaking the recipe and made Kou Rou instead. :stupid:

Thank goodness, DH, DD and my parents loved it and said it was delicious! :drool: Thanks for the recipe.

in the past, this brand of dark soya sauce is not commonly seen,
but nowadays not so, i had also ever seen it selling at sheng siong.
