After the Spicy & Sour Fish Head Curry and the Stir-Fried Curried Calms, I am sharing the 3rd Peranakan dish that DinoPapa whipped up on that day. This is my favourite as it has soy bean paste in it~ I simply love the paste, its YUM though salty but still YUM!
Our dish do not have any chillies in it as we need to feed the kids, but I don't think the taste was compromised by omitting them, it still taste as good. The kids love the sauce on their steaming white rice though you have to make sure that you do not put too much less it makes the rice too salty for them to eat.
