Another scrumptious dinner !

Seems like the rage in recent years to have “ fusion “ desserts too . Like ondeh ondeh - miniature round rice balls filled with gula Melaka ( palm sugar ) and smothered with grated coconut are now also found as a cake ..

What is under the red lid are the kueh pie tee ‘ shells ‘ to be filled with the turnip / meat filling you see by the black sweet sauce . This and the other accompaniments make up the popiah / poh piah ( like in a spring roll ) , the poh piah skin is and is shaped like a crepe - out of shot .
The beef & chicken are separate and do not go in the poh piah .

This is one dish where you usually have to do some work - work for your dinner , unless someone else rolls / wraps it for you
Managed to locate an example of what a poh piah looks like when ready to eat . One can either slice like a strudel or eat it like hot dogs hoping that the ‘ skin ‘ will not break - depending on how much one stuffed the fillings as well as order one put the ingredients / fillings in ..
Different strokes for different folk .
