Just a quick update.
I owe some girls this recipe :-)
Quick and easy recipe. For the fillings, loosely adapted Siew Mai's recipe. I omitted sesame oil and prawns and soy sauce due to allergy. I'm sure it will be even yummy with prawns and sesame oil.
For the Tao Pok, I followed domestic goddess wannabe method to turn the tao pok inside out for more crispier ending. Her stuffings recipe seems interesting too. I will definitely try her recipe next time. (with minced chicken of course ;p) You can try her recipe here. Also do browse through her recipe pages... alot of interesting weekend projects you can try.
Ok here's my easy and quick recipe.
Everything here is about a palm here a pinch there. Agak2..
Recipe enough for 2.
Ingredients
For fillings
- 100g minced chicken. I got mine from ColdStorage Halal section. Those prepacked ones. So sometimes I'll use more at time I use less.
- 200g prawns - shelled, deveined and chop. (i omit this so i use total 300g of minced chicken)
- diced chinese mushrooms (soaked and softened) (i omit this)
- 2 tbsp soy sauce - I omit soy sauce due to allergy so i added salt
- splash of sesame oil - i omit this due to allergy
- dash of pepper
- 2 teaspoon of cornflour
- 1 grated carrot
- 1 finely chopped chillies
- spring onions chopped
- some garlic chopped
Tao Pok. - i bought 1 packet of small square ones from NTUC tofu section.
Method
Dumped all the ingredients except for Tao Pok into a bowl
Mix mix mix... until like this.
Prepare the Tao Pok. Carefully slit the top of the Tao Pok and turn it inside out like below.
I tried this way as well as leave the Tao Pok unturned. The Tao Pok that I turned inside out is very crispy. I like that better.
Stuffed the Tao Pok.. Do not over stuffed else will overflow. Don't take that long to fry. Also avoid over fried as the chicken meat will end up too dry.
Serve with dipping sauce or sweet sauce. SEDAP !!
psst : You can basically stuff anything you fancy. It's really up to you.
psssst : I forgot the most important thing. Tao Pok is SOY. So funny that i'm avoiding soy based products but neglect the part that Tao Pok is Soy. I got slight rashes after eating this. Nothing serious though. It went away the next day.
