You Tiao or You Char Kway is a deep fried strip of dough in pairs that is usually taken during breakfast with either coffee, soy bean milk or porridge. You tiao has also become a must have item when we eat "bah kut teh". You tiao is also one of the ingredient for "rojak".
A good you tiao is supposed to be lightly salted, with the outer layer crispy while soft in the inside. A good you tiao must also maintain its crispiness when it is cold. Some of the you tiao become soft and difficult to chew when it is cold.
To go with my favourite porridge in my last posting, Xi De Li Clementi You Tiao at Clementi Central Market & Hawker Centre is my no. one choice. The you tiao and the porridge compliment each other. Although both are very simple food, but having them together not only warm your stomach, also satisfied your taste buds.
Xi De Li's you tiao is not only crispy, the oil they use is also changed regularly, so the you tiao is fresh without the smell of the overused oil.
