Home made Popiah

May 27th, 2008 Submitted by: Adrian

For all of you who are craving for Malaysian food, allow me to introduce the Home made Popiah prepared by my Aunty Angeline at her home. I’ll have to say that her popiah’s are the best that I have tested and “made” ever in my entire life. All the ingredients are freshly prepared and the best part is that you get to choose whatever ingredients you like when compiling your own customised POPIAH.  You can make vegetarian popiahs, or meaty popiahs, some full of sweet sauce, and even ones which are spicy full of chilly sauce. Whatever it is… I’m sure you’re salivating now.

As you can see from the pictures below, some of the ingredients include (but are not limited to); tofu cubes, shredded cucumber, turnip (Sengkuang?), diced long beans, bean sprouts, garlic, peanuts, dried chinese wax sausages, fried shallots, sweet sauce, super hot chilly sauce, & etc…

Below is a picture of some of the ingredients laid out on the popiah skin ready to be rolled. Sometimes the popiah will not roll too neatly.. but that normally is just a sign of greediness when you overload the popiah with goodies. After all, can you blame us for overloading it when everything tastes so yummy ?

This dish might look simple but the ingredients are delicious which I’m sure it takes a lot of time and patience to prepare. This blog entry is dedicated to Aunty Angeline who so graciously invite us over for super delicious Popiahs every now and then… thanks…. when’s the next one?

Sorry the pictures are a bit blur… I took the pictures with my phone’s built-in camera.
