Char Kway Tiao

What makes fragrance Char Kway Tiao? Pork Lard and Lard Oil. Thanks hubby for making the pork lard from scratch. We know it's unhealthy, but don't eat it often it's fine. =)

Couldn't find fresh cockles as we are both working. heehee..

We will try it again with proper proportioning of kway tiao and yellow mee, this round with cockles. Maybe the cockles juice makes it tastier?

that's all folks.

Thank you for popping by.
