  1. Wow this dish looks a lot like a dish on the Rasa Malaysia blog. Did you copy it? If you are so inspired by the dishes over there please link to the site and give credit please. It is the right thing to do.

  2. @Chris: Wow! Are you accusing me of plagiarizing Rasa Malaysia's work ? I do not appreciate it at all, what 'copying' have I done ? This is my old recipe which I have posted last year. Btw, this is a typical everyday homemade dish in my house. Nothing special at all.

    Here is the link: http://www.themalaysiancuisine.com/2009/08/stir-fry-beansprouts-with-salted-fish.html

    if you have anymore problems feel free to comment. I think an apology is appropriate in this situation as falsely accusing me of plagiarism just reeks of rudeness.

  3. Chris, you should know this recipe is very common in South-East Asian countries (Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore) I have had this food since I was a kid.

  4. People should always do their homework before accusing - it's so distasteful. Bean sprouts is the most common ingredient in any Chinese-Asian home, it'll be a shame if you didn't know in first place, just shows how shallow a human can be - this is to you: Chris. Shame!

  5. I don't think anybody should claim this dish as their own 'creation' -- just as dumb as claiming that Rendang is your dish.

    Is this Chris person even real? no blog link or email?

  10. Wow, some people just have the nerves. This dish is so comman in Malaysian household. You mean RM invented this dish??

  11. I have eaten and cooked this dish many times and if I want to post this on my blog, do I have to get Rasa Malaysia's permission?

  12. @ Chris: Your real name? No link and a plain common name.Rest known you could be Bee of Rasa Malaysia herself! Just my guess, don't have to get upset. I'm not accusing.

    Inspired: Don't flatter yourself too much you *****!

    Credit: Go to foodgawker/tastespotting and search for beansprouts, if they all look the same, all of them need to credit Rasa Malaysia as well is it???

    It is the right thing to do: NO, it is not the right thing to simply credit back when you did not plagiarize!

    So get back here and apologize else don't ever come back!

Dumplings

I'm actually laughing at myself! What have I got into? Trying to make dumplings?? Well, I have seen my late grandmother make them a long time ago. I can remember the ingredients but not the measurements! So, it took me about two hours to come up with the perfect recipes, and I'm glad I did! It was an instant hit! They were all gone, all gobbled up! Make the dough first, add about 480 to 500g of all-purpose flour with 300ml of water. Knead the dough and let it rest. You should be able to make 40 dumplings with the dough. Meanwhile, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Click here for the dumpling wrappers video.
