If Mandarin is not available, any type of orange or even store-bought juice will do. Just ensure store-bought juice is sugar-free, as condensed milk already adds sweetness (NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE).

Asam Laksa Recipe: Nyonya Style
What makes this Asam Laksa unique and outstanding? It’s a bowl of colorful fish broth, noodles, and fresh toppings. This is the Nyonya Style Asam Laksa, known for its aromatic fresh herbs, which form the base of the fish soup (TOM YUM FISH).
Unlike the typical reddish or dark brown fish soups, this recipe features a yellow hue from fresh turmeric.
The rest is mostly about making the fish soup and choosing toppings. Common choices include pineapple for natural sweet and sour notes. There’s no compromising on spiciness, add red chillies or even bird’s eye chillies to taste (HONGKONG WONTON NOODLE SOUP). Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an extra aromatic touch.

Made with common Chinese ingredients but infused with kaffir lime leaves instead of spring onions or coriander (PORK CHOPS RECIPE).

faced by overweight women.

Hong Kong-Style Wonton Noodle Soup
A
bowl of wonton noodles in prawn-based soup - bouncy prawn wontons, leafy
Chinese kale, and a sprinkle of spring onion. Hong Kong–Style Wonton Noodle
Soup recipe: sumptuous and satisfying (CANTONESE YEE MEE).
The prawn broth is effortless to make. The
wontons, however, take some work. It’s less about how pretty they look. It’s
more about preparing the prawn filling and wrapping them in store-bought skins.
This can take some time.
Once that’s done, and the prawn broth is seasoned, its about assembling a hearty bowl of homemade wonton noodle goodness.
