Using homegrown curry leaves and chili padi, so aromatic!
Make sure you mash the steamed salted egg yolk as fine as possible so it can evenly coated on cornflakes. I didn't mash it fine still look coarse like below, then i noticed my cornflakes still have some bits of salted egg yolk left with it.
I used cornflakes that bought from bakery ingredients shop.
The original recipe didn't include the step of baking cornflakes. I decided to bake the cornflakes so it taste more crispy .
This snack is very additive ! can't stop munching it! perfect to enjoy during CNY!
I find the taste a bit sweet, maybe due to the type of cornflakes i used. If you prefer less sweet, you may reduce sugar amount (~20g). Also if you prefer stronger salted egg yolk taste, you may increase 1-2 more eggs.
