Bak Chang 2009

Forgive my silence for quite a while... lots have been happening at home & I just didn't have the time to blog. It's that time of the year we celebrate the Rice Dumpling Festival again!

Here are some snap shots of our family's preparation in wrapping them:
Glutinous rice is marinated with Dark Soya Sauce, Chicken Stock Cube, Pepper, Light Soya Sauce, a bit of 5 spices too. You will need to fry them after marinating for awhile.

Our spread of prepared fillings : Sliced garlic fried, Har Mai fried, Beans precooked/boiled, Chestnuts & Mushrooms cooked together with seasoning too.

Ooooh, here's the whole Wok of Bak! (a.k.a. Pork ~ belly with skin). This is also marinated with Dark Soya Sauce, Light Soya Sauce, loads of 5 spices too

Here's everything including the Salted Egg York (uncooked)

All wrapped up & ready to be boiled for 3 hours or so.

Taa-Dah! Our yummy home cooked & prepared Bak Chang!
