Little Bowl Fins, literally translated from
Cantonese, is a very common street snack in Hong
Kong. The Chinese people love shark fin, but it is
expensive.
So some smart person in Hong Kong came up with
this idea of using Glass Noodle to replace the
Shark’s Fin.
Now everyone can afford to have a few bowls of
“Fins” every day if they want to. Glass Noodles do
look like Shark’s Fin when they are cooked.

4. Add fruit and grass jelly / basil seeds into
Fruit soup is one of the most beloved drinks in
Indonesia because of its refreshing taste.
The reason why this drink is so refreshing is the
combination of fresh fruits and the condensed milk.
You will enjoy the combination of the slightly sour
taste of the fruits with the sweet and silky taste from
the condensed milk.
Since Indonesia has tropical weather, people tend to
look for beverages that are refreshing like fruit soup.
Additionally, this drink becomes more popular
during the Muslim fasting month. The content of the
different types of fruits is safe for an empty stomach
after a long day and more importantly, can instantly
restore energy after a day of fasting.

Bandung, sirap bandung, or air bandung is the name of
a drink popular in Malaysia and Singapore. It consists of
milk flavoured with rose cordial syrup, giving a pink
colour. The drink is an adaptation of rose milk served in
India.
1 cup Rose syrup 12/16 cup Evaporated Milk 5 cups Water Bandung is a favorite beverage in Malaysia, especially among Malay communities. It is usually served during wedding receptions with foods such as nasi beriani or rendang. Modern innovations include adding grass jelly or soda water. Street vendors began the custom of adding pink food coloring to help buyers avoid confusing the drink with teh tarik. As a result, bandung now only comes in pink. It may be bought pre‐mixed or made at home. "Bandung" was available as early as the 1960s where it was favored by the Malay community. 47

Name of Ingredient 1. Prepare the pork belly by chopping it into small strips or cubes. Heat the wok or pan to medium heat and brown the meat for 5 ‐ 10 minutes, until the meat is browned and some of the fat has melted off. You don't need to add any oil to the pan in this step, since the fat from the pork belly will oil the pan up nicely! (Hard boil the eggs during this time if using) 2. Once the pork belly has browned lightly and some of the fat has melted away from the meat, add the rest of the ingredients (minced garlic, soy sauce, rock sugar, fried scallion, white pepper, Chinese Five Spice Powder, half of the rice wine). Cover and steam for 5 minutes on medium heat. In the meantime, boil a small pot of water. 3. Add the small pot of water you just boiled to the pan, just until the water covers the meat. (Peel the hard‐boiled eggs that you prepared earlier if using and add them to the pan.) Cover the pan and let it cook for half an hour (Turn the eggs every so often to make sure all sides absorb the flavorful braising sauce). 4. After 30 minutes of cooking, add the remaining rice wine to the pan and let it cook for 5 more minutes. Depending on how much water you added in step 3, you may need to leave the pot uncovered for a few minutes to let the sauce boil down to a thicker Braised Pork Rice consistency. (It shouldn’t be too thick or too watery) 5. When serving, put this on top of white rice.

Typically Served at This Event: Serving Size (example, 4‐6 people): 4 Add the spices, garlic and parsley. About the Recipe: One of the real favourites in traditional Turkish
cuisine is köfte. Simple but extremely tasty
meatballs. They’re one of the absolute staples
served up in eateries ranging from the smallest,
most primitive hole in the walls, to the most
sophisticated centres of gastronomy. Along the
roadsides in Turkey, you’ll find restaurants that sell
only köfte. There is a fabulous one very near the
ancient city of Sardis, where I always make a point
of stopping. Portions of these mouth-watering
meatballs come flying out of the kitchen, cooked
fresh to order, with hot chillies, raw onions and a
few salad leaves for garnish, alongside
scrumptious squidgy Turkish bread. 5 Process the meat well to achieve a fine texture. 6 Roll the mixture into small meatballs (I use a melonballer) or finger shaped patties using dampened hands. 7 You may cook them at once, or refrigerate the mixture for several hours. (If your meat is very fresh, you can divide it in half and wrap part well in plastic for the next day's meal.) 8 Heat the oil in a heavy skillet, and fry the balls or patties until cooked through and evenly browned. 9 The meatballs should be stirred several times, the patties turned once. 10 Remove them with a slotted spoon to drain. Ingredients Quantity (US measurements) Name of Ingredient 1 cup fine fresh breadcrumb 1 lb lean ground lamb 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1/2 teaspoon allspice 1 teaspoon dried mint 2 cloves garlic 72
11 Serve the meatballs hot or at room temperature as an appetizer. 12 Lovely with a yogurt or tahini sauce, on a bed of rice or in a pita. Read more: <a href="http://www.food.com/recipe/turkish‐meatballs‐
