Yongchaak Singju

Yongchaak Singju is a very popular Meitei dish, its not a main dish but one of the all time fav, side dish. I like it spicy and the best is with Oumorok...worlds ex.hottest chillie. The Picture and Recipe is below.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Yongchaak (Peeled and thinly chopped as the pic. above)
  • 1 Oumorok  or 10 Dry Red chillies.
  • Ngari
  • 1 piece Fried fish (optional)
  • Salt to taste
  • Onion for garnish.
Method:
  • Peel the yongchaak and chop it into thin pieces.
  • Prepare a paste of Oumorok with Ngari & Salt (One can steam it by putting Ngari and chillies in a small steel container inside a pressure cooker or alternatively what most Meitei's do is we put the Ngari and chillie in a small steel bowl and let it cook by steam while cooking rice in a Handi or Rice Cooker)
  • Mix the Chillie paste with yongchaak.
  • Garnish it with onions.
Preparation Time: 20 mins
Serves: 4-5
