Introduction

Hawker dishes are definitely a staple food in Singapore. It’s what we talk about among our family and friends and even with complete strangers! We debate about where to find the best Hokkien mee and argue about which chicken rice stall has the longest queue, but despite this, not many of us know how to prepare these dishes for ourselves. Some also think that it takes too much work to cook something that can be easily found at any hawker centre.

This was when we realised how important it was for us to document the recipes and share how these hawker favourites can be recreated without too much fuss right at home. You won’t need fancy tools or an elaborate set-up to prepare these dishes as we have carefully researched and tweaked the recipes so that the dishes can be prepared with whatever tools you have at home whether in Singapore or overseas.
