Chee Cheong Fun or Steamed Rice Rolls are commonly served for breakfast or as a snack.
There are many types of Chee Cheong Fun. One is the Hong Kong / Dim Sum style, which is filled with char siew, prawns or youtiao. The other is the plain version, served with garlic oil, soy sauce, a sprinkle of roasted sesame seeds and a dollop of red or brown sweet sauce. And other variations in between.
Good Chee Cheong Fun should be soft, smooth, silky and glide down your throat.
This Cheong Fun are ready-made, they are available in markets or supermarkets. I steamed the rice rolls in a double boiler till soft, cut into sections, then drizzle with garlic oil, soy sauce and a sprinkle of roasted sesame seeds.
The soy sauce and garlic oil make this Cheong Fun very fragrant. A small plate of sweet sauce is also served on the side for dipping.
This is a simple and fuss free breakfast option. Although not freshly made, this Cheong Fun is soft and silky. Assembled with the right amount of sauce, toppings and garnishes and they are turned into a lip-smacking breakfast or snack item.
