# Singapore Cooking by Terry Tan (Paperback)

**_"New York may be the city that never sleeps, but Singapore's the city that never stops eating. For a gastro-tourist, somebody who travels to eat, any kind of serious eater, Singapore's probably the best place you can go..." --Anthony Bourdain_**  
  
Good food is an abiding passion for Singaporeans--mainly because there's so much of it on the tiny, multi-cultural island. _Singapore Cooking_ is a compendium of local favorites by two of Singapore's best-known food personalities, Christopher Tan and his father Terry Tan.  
  
This book features amazing recipes for the most fabulous Hainanese Chicken Rice and Singapore Chilli Crab you have ever tasted--as well as lesser known but equally delightful dishes like Ayam Tempra (Chicken Braised in Spicy Sweet Soy) and Nasi Ulam (Fresh Herbal Rice Salad).  
  
**The recipes are easy to follow, accompanied by clear color photos, and include:**

-   Delicious Marinades, Chutneys, Sambals and Achars like Sweet Pineapple Relish and Roasted Coconut Sambal
-   Famous local snacks like Curry Puffs, Bak Kut Teh Pork Rib Soup and Rojak Salad with Sweet Spicy Dressing
-   Spicy noodle dishes like Mee Goreng Fried Egg Noodles and Laksa Rice Noodles with Spicy Coconut Broth
-   Fabulous seafood recipes like Grilled Sambal Stingray, Gulai Prawns with Pineapple and of course, Chilli Crab
-   Delightful meat and chicken dishes like Babi Assam Tamarind Pork and Chicken Wings in Dark Soy and Rice Wine
-   Distinctive vegetable dishes like Eggplant Sambal and Nangka Lemak Young Jackfruit Coconut Curry
-   Recipes for fabulous desserts like Nonya Pineapple Tarts and Coconut Pancakes with Banana Sauce
-   And so much more!

Singaporean cooking has incorporated recipes and ingredients from Chinese, Indonesian, Malay, Indian, and Western cooking traditions and melded them together in a distinctive, flavorful way. Your acquaintance--or reacquaintance--with Singapore's food promises to be an unforgettable experience!
