First time trying Fried Carrot Cake in Singapore? 🌟 Here is a quick tip for travelers: This iconic local street food is definitely NOT the sweet dessert cake you are used to.
There are no orange carrots, cinnamon, or cream cheese frosting here! Instead, it’s a savory, comforting dish made from steamed white radish cubes stir-fried with eggs, garlic, and preserved radish.
It usually comes in two styles, but if you can't decide between the savory, crispy White version or the sweet, caramelised Black version, Uncle has a pro-tip: Why choose when you're on vacation?
You can get the best of both worlds on a single plate. Just head up to the hawker stall and ask for a plate of "Black and White" (locally known as Yuan Yang).
