This year theme for Singapore food festival 2010 is Chinese dialect food , I went to the Clarke quay food festival which has many different kinds of dialect food . I'm going to introduce a hokkien food which is also known as ' Popiah ' or in chinese 薄饼 ( bao bing )
This is the stall that sells popiah . Fortune food popiah . *Yums*.
The popiah is a fujian or chaozhou style of spring roll , the popiah skin is like a soft , thin paper like texture which is actually made out of wheat flour . It will always be eaten either with sweet sauce which is often bean sauce or shrimp paste , or with hot chilli sauce , due to personal preference . The popiah filling is turnip which commonly know as bangkuang in singapore , bean sprouts , carrots , sliced tofu , peanut powder and egg . The popiah is then ready for its wrap , it will be wrap from the edges to the middle then from top to bottom . Then its ready to cut into smaller pieces for easier consumption . The popiah is a cheap and fun dish to make as it doesnt require alot of ingredients to it . I hope you learned abit more from me about this dish . Enjoy !
