2. Covid-19 stay-home recipe: Yakisoba with a local twist
At the risk of purists hurling eggs at me, I am sharing this recipe for Hokkien mee using chukamen, a type of Japanese noodles.
This dish is essentially yakisoba cooked in the style of fried Hokkien mee. Yakisoba is Japanese for fried noodles and it uses Chinese-style, wheat-flour noodles called chukamen.
Why use chukamen instead of the usual yellow thick round egg noodles? The texture of chukamen is springy and I find that I can pre-cook the noodles in prawn stock for a longer time to really soak up the flavour without them turning limp.
3. WATCH: HOW SINGAPOREANS HAVE WEATHERED THE PANDEMIC
Lilin is a Singapore Airlines crew member who becomes a care ambassador in a hospital, while private-hire car driver Fadzuly struggles with falling demand.
They are among the characters in four short films inspired by true stories of how Singaporeans have weathered the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Stronger Together films, commissioned by the Ministry of Communications and Information, were launched on June 13. The works, which have dialogue in English, Chinese, Malay and Tamil, are directed by local film-makers Royston Tan, Caleb Huang, Alvin Lee and He Shuming.
