Mr Hainan & Mrs Nyonya

Do you ever try Hainan food? And you should noted the cute chicken rice ball which cooked with chicken soap and oil, moulded, and shaped into ball manually. The taste is wonderful and the texture is really unique and different with either normal cooked rice or sushi. The rice ball mould is to ensure every rice balls in equal size.


Hainan coconut cake is circulating with a pandan leaf or coconut leaf. Inner filled with coconut shred. It is  a steamed cake with a red dot on it. Hainan Island is a tropical region and therefore parts of coconut usually become the ingredients of Hainan cake.



Lemon used to consume steamed lady fingers but this is the first time Lemon try the streamed lady fingers fried with sambal. As  we know, Baba Nyonya origin from China, but they arrived in Malaya many years ago and they practised Malay lifestyle and cultures. A history to remember.

When we meet food and cultures.
