Mummy loves to prepare Popiah, otherwise known as spring roll. I guess she just has to prepare all the ingredients and it will up to us to decide what we want to eat. However, preparation of the ingredients is not easy at all. Mummy needs to cut and grate the ingredients and cook them. I guess the preparation time for this dish is equivalent to cooking a proper meal and it requires more effort.
Mummy stewed the radish with carrot, boiled the prawns, bean spouts and crabmeat, fried the egg and beancurd and roasted and pounded the peanut. As for sauce, there are sambal chili and prawn paste and not forgetting the sweet flour sauce.

And then, it is up to the individual to decide what goes into our very own popiah. Normally, I will be very greedy and will add all the ingredients into my popiah. This is how the freshly wrapped Popiah looks like.

And when there is leftover ingredients, this is what Mummy would do. She will prepare the spring rolls and have them deep-fried. This is how versatile this dish is. We can eat it the healthy way where we could taste the freshness of the ingredients. Alternatively, we can have them deep fried to enjoy the crispness of the popiah. I love both the cooking methods. They each have their own uniqueness. Eat this fried version with the sweet flour sauce - is nice!
