1 tablespoon of corn starch
1 piece of tau kwa (or tofu)*
1 can of braised gluten*
2 stalks of green vegetables*

Procedure:
1. heat the oil and fry the garlic and ginger until garlic browns.
2. add tau kwa, gluten and vegetables, fry until cooked
3. pour in the vegetable stock and bring to a boil
4. mix in the hor fun and add the corn starch to thicken the stock

* you can put any other ingredients you like in this, I used tau kwa, gluten and green veges here

Daawat Tandoori

Having passed by the restaurant every day, it was only yesterday that we finally decided ot go in and give it a try. We were pleasantly surprised by the great food :-)

We had the vegetarian set meal, which has briyani rice and a naan (choice of plain, garlic or butter), 3 side dishes (of which one is a dal) and a raita. The dishes were really good! Finally, there is dessert and coffee/tea ~ you can change the beverage to a soft drink, but I got the tea, and enjoyed it.

Open Daily, 11am - 11pm

Soy Pancakes ~ no eggs!

I started making soy pancakes because of a desire to reduce carbohydrate intake. They turn out really fluffy and tasty. I initially tried to make these using solely soy flour, but that didn't work at all ~ try it and you will see! I do not use eggs, and have also liked it with bananas and cinnamon.

Dry ingredients:
1 1/2 cup soy flour
1/2 cup wheat flour
1 tsp sugar (to taste)
dash of salt
dash of cinnamon (to taste, optional)
1/2 tsp baking powder
Wet ingredients:
2 cups milk
1/2 cup water
1 tsp oil
1 banana

Directions:
a) mix together the dry ingredients.
b) mix in the wet ingredients and stir/whisk.
c) heat pan on the stove.
d) use a ladle to spoon batter onto the pan, spreading it out to desired thickness.
e) cook for 1 minute (may vary depending on your flame)
f) flip over and cook for another minute (may vary depending on your flame)
