This was what I wrote last time… dated September 18, 2006. Hehe. Thought it is nice to share a recipe with everyone.

Dong Pou has always been a major hangout place for me, Sammy, Esther and occasionally Mei Ling.. We go there almost twice a week.. according to Sammy, they sell the authentic dim sum, unlike some commercialised dim sum shop.. eat here feel more “OOMPH” than the rest.. haha.. dunno ar.. but Dong Pou is smaller and not so noisy.. hence it’s a good place to talk. And dim sum here is so cheap. Oh well.
For me, if I dun eat my woo kok (read the encyclopedia to know what it is) and egg tarts, then it doesn’t feel like i’m eating dim sum.. Maybe i repeated this a tad too frequent that Sammy actually made woo kok for me. Wahhhh…
I woke up late yday tho we had plans to make woo kok. Sammy took out the “family secret” recipe.. hahaha.. we went to the wet market to buy all we need… only at around 1 plus we started making our woo kok…
ingredients
The ingredients needed are:
- 640g glutinous rice flour
- 120g prawn (cut into dices)
- 300g pork/chicken marinated with char siew sauce(cut into dices)
- 7 or 8 pieces of big mushroom (cut into dices and marinated wif garlic oil)
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 clove of garlic
- 100g cooking oil
- 3 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of soda bicarbonate
- 1 bowl of mixed peas-corn-carrot
- 5 tablespoon of soya sauce
mushroom and prawn..
Fry the garlic till golden brown. Then add mushroom. Fry until the mushroom is browner and then add the prawn in.
mushroom+prawn+pork
Add the pork/chicken in. Throw the mixed vege in too.. Add in the soya sauce too. Add to your liking.. some people may like it sweet and some salty.. i like it just nice :D
wu kok's fillings
It’s cooked!!
yam
Now we make the outer layer.. cut the yam and steam it.. When it’s soft, take it out to cool. Then use hot boiling water and pour it on the wheat flour. The amazing part of this flour is it won’t dilute the mixture, it will thicken and stick all of it together. You will see a transparent-ish dough.. Leave it to cool too.. when both are cooled, mix them together and knead them into a dough.
the unfried wu kok
Then you can start making the woo kok. Take some of the dough and roll it into a ball. Flatten it and put some fillings in it.. then shape it into what u see in the pic.. It’s not very easy cuz the dough is VERY VERY soft… Once done, you can fry it. But not for long, cuz both the fiillings and outer layer is already cooked.
done!
Yummy! The End!
