This Fragrant Spicy Sauce Goes Amazing With Almost Anything
Kam Heong Sauce literally means “Golden and Fragrant” Sauce translated from the Cantonese dialect. This sauce tastes amazing as it has a combination of Chinese, Malay and Indian flavours all mixed together. More amazing is this is a VEGETARIAN Kam Heong Sauce, as we used vegetarian ingredients for this recipe.
With the combinations of vegetarian dried shrimps, chilli, curry powder and curry leaves, it gives this vegetarian sauce the same great flavours and aromas as the one that is non vegetarian where dried shrimps are used instead. Simply stir fry the soaked vegetarian dried prawns with chillies and candlenuts in a curry leaf infused oil until fragrant. Then, add in all the vegetarian seasoning ingredients and continue to stir fry over low heat for just another 1 to 2 minutes. And we’re done!
This flavourful spicy sauce is very versatile as it can be used to fry almost anything, from vegetables to vegetarian meat. You can easily make a batch of this and store in the refrigerator for use anytime. Now, how convenient is that?
So ENJOY!
