Whats that Tai Kow Mean

I'm sure most of you guys and gals out there know of this food. It could be available in most places throughout the country like in the market or Pasar Malam. I liked this delicacies since I was a kid. My father was a popiah hawker so he has many of his friends who are selling local delicacies too. From time to time, my dad would bring this back home and I would be certainly the first person who would grab a piece of this.

I was walking at the wet market last week and I was fascinated with this uncle who are making this tai kow mean. So, I was just standing there for about 10 minutes waiting till he finishes it while taking some photos along the process.

Firstly the mixture of flour ingredients is pour onto the hot pan. According to the uncle, the pan should be hot. I mean real hot that it could burn your hand off if you put it there.
Also, there should not be any oil on the hot pan. Nope, it is not going to stick at the pan if the pan it just hot enough.

After that, just put on the cover onto the pan and start pumping for some fire. Uncle still using the charcoal to make his tai kow mean. The fire has to be balance and spread evenly throughout the pan otherwise some part of it might not be cook well.

After about 10 minutes, the tai kow mean is finally well cooked. Just scrap the tai kow mean carefully and lift it from the pan.

Then, just spread a layer of margarine onto the tai kow mean before topping it up with the fragrant ground nut.

Finally, just cut it into pieces. For your information, the best edible part of this tai kow mean was on the side cos it was so crunchy, yumm.

Woah... delicious or not le
