It is Chinese New Year's eve already!!
I have to apologize for not updating more often. Pre Chinese New Year is always the busiest month. Today I finally get to literally breath. I told myself I have to update this lovely blog. I know it is almost Chinese New Year. Therefore, I am issuing an easy yet popular recipe.
Salted Egg Yolk Cornflakes has been the current Chinese New Year snack for several years now. Then again, anything salted egg yolk has been a popular option. I personally find this Salted Egg Yolk Cornflakes a little rich, but that does not stop my little bosses from devouring it like no tomorrow.
Cooking this is pretty simple and you just need a few ready ingredients. Do pay attention not to put your fire too high as the egg yolks burn easily.

Hi Christine,
ReplyDeleteI have yet to try this but I must say it looks deliciously sinful.
I ate one the other day but it had tom yam flavor cornflakes mixed with curry leaves, peanuts, ikan bilis. Highly addictive. Would you have the recipe?
I do not have the recipe but it is a good idea. Will try it later. Thanks.
