The main ingredient is white radish. It is grated and mixed with rice flour. Together with water, the mixture is stirred while cooking. Then the thick mixture is poured in a round pan and steamed to form the carrot cake. The carrot cake is cut into pieces and stir with eggs, minced garlic, spring onion, preserved radish. You could even add sweet black sauce if you want the dark version of fried carrot cake. If you like you could even add small shrimp or diced mushroom to give it added texture and taste.
A skillful hawker will not burn the egg when it is stir fried with the carrot cake and will also making you drool with just the aroma alone. If you like it a little spicy, you can ask the chef to put in a small amount of chili.. yum yum!!! I would recommend all visitors to Singapore, should try Fried Carrot Cake. :))
