Mum’s Kitchen - Yau Char Kway

no ammonia bicarbonate

no alum

no dark-coloured oil

this is 50% healthier

*

why never we thought of that

Yau Char Kway is actually fried bread

*

while we were baking bread last Sunday

set some dough aside

bread dough       

*

added in a pinch of baking soda and salt

and here we get YCK

*

slicing dough into thin and long pieces frying...        very slim indeed       looking better

where is my fresh soy bean?

*

word of caution

while i was frying YCK

i realized how frying food is so fattening

because we dip the old thing into hot, boiling oil

*

using oil absorbent paper does help

but much more oil  has already being absorbed

*

this is just like chinese french fries

high in saturated fat

so…

instead of taking YCK + soy bean as breakfast

please substitute it with wholegrain bread

*

YCK happened to be the by-product

the star of the day

homemade wholegrain breadit's so soft       floss bread

*

p.s.

i stood more than 1 hour frying the floss
