Notes

Chef Notes:

Pork Mince - The quality and ratio of lean:fat makes a difference. If you want it really tender, add more fat (I know a little more unhealthy) but for me a 70 lean : 30 fat ratio makes it tender! Best cut would be a shank or some belly.
Marination Time - Let the roll mix marinade as long as possible. The flavour will mature if you've let it rested for longer.
Shallow Fry - The purpose of the shallow fry is to make the tofu skin crispy and not to cook the pork. So don't be alarmed if your pork is still raw in the center when it comes out of the wok.
Other Flavours - Play around with some flavours for the roll and sauce, you could replace the water chestnuts with some bamboo shoots, the five spice with cumin, pork with chicken or a combination of, add some shiitake mushrooms or even play around with different types of seafood? Scallops instead of prawns if your feeling rich?

Prawns Wonton Soup

Wonton soup is a comforting dish to eat on any days. I love my prawns dumplings with water chestnuts inside as it brings sweetness and crunch to the dumplings. For the soup broth, I usually make them using pork or chicken bones. The broth should be light and clean to complement the flavours of the dumplings.

Sambal Chilli

No doubt, many local Singapore food can’t go without sambal chilli. Singaporeans love our chilli! A good sambal can elevate a dish or be used as a master sauce in creating many more dishes. It is definately labor intensive as it requires long hours of cooking time over stove. But trust me, it is all worth the effort!
