Maling is banned?! Oh no! On belachan – I have no idea, but I think it will set off my fire alarm. And my neighbors might hate me.

I hear you on the American breakfast thing. The only American breakfast I understand are the ones that are both hot and feature meat. Prominently. That smoke pork shank has from Veil? Delicious. But not enough meat. And WTH is the purpose of cereal?

AAHHH….No have in Australia. Bee Hoon with luncheon meat, sunnyside up and fishcakes. I love!

I miss it and even if I try to make it myself, my bee hoon looks short, boring and by the time i cook it, i give up eating.

I want!

Dot! Maling luncheon meat has been refused entry to Singapore by the AVA — it failed some sort of test and no one’s applied to let it in since.
I however, might be able to help with a sambal recipe!
Involves much peeling of onions, blanching of dried chillis and a good dollop of belachan. Can you even get belachan there?

Make a huge pint of it (in fact, you can keep it in the freezer in a Ben and Jerry’s carton just for fun), and use it to salve those cravings…. =)

Thank you all for your kind thoughts and ideas!!! I will be going home next year, so maybe I can try to tahan until then. Hopefully, by the time I get there, I am not too jetlagged to enjoy the holiday.

I’ve never understood the salad-as-a-meal thing either, even though I don’t eat as much as the average Singapore.
