Steamed Rice Rolls (Chee Cheong Fun ) in Kowloon Food Court (Engl)
Chee Cheong Fun are actually rice sheets. Rice flour are mixed with water to form a slightly viscous mixture. This mixture is poured onto a specially-made flat pan and then steamed to become rice sheets.
Though usually eaten plain, these rice sheets also come with variety of food items wrapped with it. Traditionally these are savoury ingredients like Shrimp or Char Siew.
The commonly found Chee Cheong Fun is one where a generous amount of sweet sauce, sesame oil and sesame seed is added to it.
Chinese rice noodle rolls (chee cheong fun) can have various fillings such as shrimp, Chinese BBQ pork, ground beef, or dried shrimp and green onions. They are also delicious plain when served with the flavourful sweet sauce (teem cheong / timzheong) and sesame paste.
