: : Granny’s Cooking : :
Bad day at work. Still, bright side was that Granny made one of my favourite veggie dish : fried mangkuang with strips of dried cuttlefish and pork. She didn’t add the small prawns or the black mushrooms inside but it still tasted good. The pork can be subtituted with chicken or just use prawn. Beef is a bit too strong for this dish Mangkuang is like a really really big turnip. It’s crunchy and juicy at the same time. It’s practically made up of mostly water but it’s a very sweet veggie. The dish that she cooked originated from Penang, or so she says. The mangkuang is cut into really think strips for frying but it can also be eaten raw. It’s one of the main ingredients to rojak and springrolls (otherwise known as egg rolls).
