MEET THE CHEFS
Vietnamese Spring Roll by Chef Steven Long, Vietnam
Chef Steven Long, acclaimed Top Chef Vietnam 2014 finalist presented the authentic way of preparing Vietnamese spring roll, wrapping in fresh veggies, rice vermicelle and prawns in Vietnamese bánh tráng, along with amazing sweet peanut sauce.
Flying Roti Canai by Chef Zainal Abidin and Chef Mohd Fairus, Malaysia
Chef Zainal Abidin, who is known across the region for his skills in making Flying Roti Canai, captivated the crowd with his “flips dan spins dough in the air” skills, together with Chef Mohd Fairus.
Singapore Strawberry Shiok Summer Roll by Dr. Leslie Tay, Singapore
Street Eats invited Singapore celebrity food blogger, Dr. Leslie Tay to participate in the event and flew him to Vietnam to learn the traditional way of making Summer Roll. With the knowledge and skills acquired, he created his very own version of Vietnamese roll with a twist – putting in strawberry and satay pork belly!
This is probably one of the most creative Vietnamese spring rolls we had ever tasted. Love how the taste of flavourful marinated pork belly came through at the first bite, further balanced up by fruity, tangy hints of strawberry that clock in just nice. Best way to eat it as suggested by Dr. Leslie – use hand, no cutlery. Dip with sauce, pop the roll into your mouth to enjoy the myriad of flavours and texture of Summer Roll in one go.
The touch of red from strawberry with white from rice paper sheet makes this Singapore Strawberry Shiok Summer Roll resembles the colours of Singapore flag – a very thoughtful gesture of marking Singapore’s 53rd birthday while celebrating diverse Southeast Asia flavours, because the first day of RWS Street Eats 2018 coincides with Singapore National Day!
