Chai Tow Kway, also known as fried carrot cake, is a popular Malaysian street food that is savory and delicious.
Despite its name, this dish does not contain any carrots. Instead, it is made from radish (also known as white carrot) and rice flour, which are steamed together to form a cake.
The cake is then cut into cubes and stir-fried with eggs, garlic, and soy sauce, creating a flavorful and satisfying dish.
Chai Tow Kway can be customized with additional ingredients such as bean sprouts, chives, or even prawns to add more texture and flavor.
In Malaysia, this dish is often enjoyed as a breakfast item or a snack, and it is commonly found at hawker centers and food stalls.
While Chai Tow Kway is a tasty treat, it is important to enjoy it in moderation due to its high carbohydrate content from the rice flour.
