Do try these Straits Chinese recipes (go to Recipes webpage) that I demonstrated at Broadmeadows shopping centre. The noodle dish is a very popular dish at Chinese New Year. Because of its long strands, noodles signify longevity and seafood symbolises prosperity, so enjoy your noodles and a long and prosperous life!

Did you know that 2007 was the Year of the Golden Pig and 2008 is the Year of the Earth Rat?

Tamarind prawns are the easiest dish to make; the sharpness of the tamarind complements the fresh prawn flavours perfectly. For a touch of spice, you can’t beat a Straits Chinese Pork Satay, great with some roti or steamed rice.

Enjoy!
