Nutrition (per serving)

Ingredients

• 500g Cheong Fun (steamed rice rolls)
• 3 tbsp Light Soy Sauce
• 1 tbsp Dark Soy Sauce
• 1 tbsp Oyster Sauce (or vegetarian oyster sauce for a vegetarian option)
• 1 tsp Sugar
• 2 tbsp Water
• 1 tsp Sesame Oil
• 1/4 tsp White Pepper Powder
• 1 tbsp Cooking Oil
• 1 tsp Toasted Sesame Seeds
• 2 stalks Green Onions, chopped

Steps

1. Prepare the Cheong Fun: If using fresh Cheong Fun, separate the rolls. If using refrigerated Cheong Fun, steam until soft and hot, about 3-5 minutes. Once ready, cut the Cheong Fun into bite-sized segments.
2. Prepare the 'Soy Sauce King' dressing: In a small bowl, combine Light Soy Sauce, Dark Soy Sauce, Oyster Sauce, Sugar, Water, Sesame Oil, and White Pepper Powder. Mix well until the sugar dissolves.
3. Pan-fry Cheong Fun: Heat Cooking Oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the prepared Cheong Fun segments and pan-fry for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned and slightly crispy on the edges.
4. Combine with sauce: Pour the 'Soy Sauce King' dressing over the pan-fried Cheong Fun. Toss gently to coat all the Cheong Fun evenly with the sauce. Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and be absorbed by the Cheong Fun.
5. Serve and garnish: Transfer the Soy Sauce King Cheong Fun to serving plates. Sprinkle generously with chopped Green Onions and Toasted Sesame Seeds before serving immediately. Enjoy hot.
