SINGAPORE CARROT CAKE | FRIED CARROT CAKE

Steps:

• Mix together the rice flour and tapioca flour in the cooled chicken stock till there are no lumps.
• Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the grated white radish and cook till translucent, a few minutes. Drain.
• In a non-stick wok or frying pan, heat 1 Tbsp oil.
• Add minced garlic and when 'just golden', quickly add the rice-flour batter and stir.
• Add the drained radish. Stir. Taste and season as necessary.
• Note that the batter should be quite thick. If it is too thin, continue cooking with continuous stirring on low heat. Continue to the next step (steaming) only after the batter is quite thick.
• Steam: Pour into a cake tin and then place on a rack in a steamer. Steam, covered for 1 hour on medium-low heat till the top is set (though it may be a little sticky to the touch).
• Allow to cool and refrigerate overnight.
• Cut the steamed cake into rectangular slabs of the desired size.
• Pan fry in shallow oil on each side till golden brown.
• Drain on kitchen paper towel and serve while still hot and crisp! The outside will be crisp and the inside smooth, soft, hot, and savory!
• Cut the steamed cake in medium-sized dice.
• Beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• In a wok or nonstick frying pan, heat some oil.
• Add and fry the diced pieces till pale gold (not as brown as for plain carrot cake).
• Move to the side of the pan. Add scallions and garlic and saute.
• Add the pickled radish/turnip and chopped red chilli (optional). Stir a moment.
• Add the chili sauce, fish sauce, and soy sauce and stir till mixed well with the cubed carrot cake. (Add half the fish sauce first, and do a taste test before adding more as fish sauces are different-careful as it can get too salty).
• Next, add the beaten egg over the diced pieces or to the side of the pan (as per liking- I prefer it on the side.)
• Scramble and toss everything together. Garnish with chopped spring onion or cilantro. Serve hot and sizzling!
• Add the pickled radish/turnip and chopped red chilli (BOTH optional). Stir briefly.
• Add the dark, sweet, thick soy sauce as well as chilli sauce and stir till mixed well with the cubed carrot cake.

SINGAPORE "CARROT CAKE"

Steps:

• Make and steam cake:
• Oil bottom and side of a 9-inch round cake pan.
• Peel daikon, then shred in a food processor fitted with medium shredding disk. Reserve any liquid.
• Heat wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates instantly. Pour 3 tablespoons oil down side of wok, then tilt wok to swirl, coating side. When oil begins to smoke, add daikon with any liquid, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and stir-fry 3 minutes. Cover and cook over moderately low heat, stirring and breaking up daikon occasionally, until daikon is very tender, about 15 minutes.
• Whisk together rice flour and water in a large bowl until smooth, then stir in daikon (mixture will be lumpy) and pour into cake pan.
• Set a steamer rack inside cleaned wok and fill wok with water (not above steamer rack), then bring to a boil. Reduce heat to moderate and steam cake in pan on rack, covered, 1 hour (replenish water as necessary). Wearing oven mitts, transfer pan to a cooling rack and cool about 1 1/2 hours. Wrap pan tightly with plastic wrap and chill at least 8 hours.
• Make stir-fry:
• Run a knife along edge of cake to loosen, then invert onto a cutting board, rapping on bottom of pan until cake is released. Blot with paper towels. Cut cake into 1/2-inch cubes.
• Beat together eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl.
• Heat dried wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates instantly. Pour remaining 4 tablespoons oil down side of wok, then tilt wok to swirl, coating side. When oil begins to smoke, add cake cubes, garlic, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and stir-fry, letting cake rest on bottom and sides of wok about 10 seconds between stirs, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. (Cubes will soften and may stick to wok. Scrape brown bits from bottom of wok and continue stir-frying.) Add eggs to wok and stir-fry until eggs are just set, about 1 minute. Stir in ketjap manis, sambal oelek, and scallions, then transfer to a serving dish and scatter cilantro on top. Serve with additional sambal oelek.

FRIED CARROT CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Add daikon to a pot of boiling water and cook for five minutes until translucent. Drain then set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, add rice flour, tapioca flour, and chicken stock. Mix until fully combined then add the daikon.
• Place a wok on medium heat, then add 1 tbsp of cooking oil. Once it heats up add 1 tbsp of garlic and fry for 1 minute before adding in the daikon mixture. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens up. This will happen rapidly so be careful not to take it too far or it will dry out. The mixture should look like a thick cake batter.
• Pour the daikon mix into a round cake pan, then place inside a steaming pot and steam for one hour.
• Once the cake has become a solid mass, remove from the steamer and allow to cool. Then refrigerate for three hours or overnight.
• Remove the cake from the fridge and set on a chopping board then slice into small rectangular cubes.
• Add 2 tbsp of cooking oil to a wok and place on high heat, then once the oil starts to smoke add the cubes of cake and fry, stirring occasionally until every side has browned.
• Lower the heat to medium, then add garlic, pickled radish (chai poh), light soy sauce, and fish sauce. Stir for a minute until each cube is coated in sauce, then add eggs and allow it to set for a moment. Break up the eggs partially once they are cooked then flip onto a plate.
• Garnish with sliced spring onion, and chilli paste.
• Enjoy!
