think should be bian yu. That is how I make mine. mince meat, prawns, bian yu.

Gotta fry the bian yu first then chop it up to add to the filling.

Can share ... Where to buy Bian Yu ?

U can buy bian yu at the 干粮 section of supermarket....or those shops specialise in 干粮....
If u go market, surely can get from those stores selling 干粮....quite easily avail....

:thankyou:

How do u fry the bian yu? With or without oil? I hv a pack in the fridge, many months liao, still hv not processed 😂 if just dump inside the oven, can bake at low heat?

Hubby likes his mother's egg omelette soup with bian yu.

Can just dump into oven like you say. But I find it more fragrant if fried with oil like you would ikan bilis or salted fish.[/quote] :thankyou:

Talking about fried wontons, I haven't made that in ages. Kinda missed that dish :drool: Any particular brand for the wonton skin I should look for?



I think NTUC only has 2 types: the yellow skin ones and the white skin ones. I buy only the white skin ones. Dun like the taste of the other one.

I bought the yellow skin ones previously. Forgot about the brand though.

yeah, theirs have a fishy smell, which my dc don't like, that's why i always end up crunching it all down. 😆 bad for a diet! 😂

I always ask for extra serving when I eat this at West Mall Pontian. Hv tried the other Pontian at BP Mall, cheat type, miserable filling, almost like nothing.[/quote]that's why homemade always the best! customised taste. 😉

depending on how much u want to make. simple version here, but u can vary the ingredients according to your tastebuds, like adding minced prawns too.

about 100g minced pork, seasoned with salt and pepper
2 pieces of water chestnut, chopped finely
some spring onions, chopped finely
1egg yolk (keep the white for sealing the wontons)
mix them up well.

scoop small amount of mixture onto wonton skin and fold into half and seal with egg white.

this should make about 20pcs i think. but the number doesn't matter.

have fun cooking and hope your boy will enjoy eating, tianzhu! 😄
