After watching this Little Nyonya, I am so motivated to try and cook some of the nyonya food myself. Not so nice thou, but it is pretty ok to eat :)
Ingredients:-
300 g lady's fingers (okra)
125 ml (5 tsbp) oil
Spice Paste (ground):-
40 g (4-5) fresh red chillies
5 g ( 5 large) dried red chillies
10 g (1 clove) garlic
120 g (12) shallots
10 g (4) candlenuts
5 g (1 tsp) belacan, toasted
2 tbsp water, sugar
1 tsp salt
20 g dried prawns - soaked, cleaned & pounded
1. Bring water to boil in a wok & add in the whole lady's fingers. Simmer until cooked - a fork will pierce it easily.
2. Remove from the work & cut away the stalks. Leave whole or slice diagonally. Arrange on a serving plate.
3. Heat the oil in a wok to saute the spice paste until aromatic, about 5 minutes. Add the dried prawns and saute until aromatic. Dish onto the cut lady's fingers or return the lady's fingers to the work & toss together.
You are done! It was pretty good dish, and you can replace lady's fingers with others vegetables like long bean etc. They really taste good. :)
