Recipes with a spoonful of sugar.
Curry fishball is a very popular Hongkong Street food and household. Think bouncy fishballs, chewy pork skin, tender cuttlefish (and sometimes daikon)—all swimming in a rich, slightly sweet and spicy curry sauce. Every spoonful offers a mix of textures: the soft fishballs, the springy seafood, and that satisfying bite from pork skin. The curry is aromatic—packed with garlic, onions (or shallots), and classic Cantonese‑style curry spices—bringing warmth and depth without being overly heavy.
In Chengdu and Chongqing, ice jelly and hot pot are a golden pair. In summer, the crystal clear ice jelly is as smooth as white jade. It is drizzled with red sugar syrup, a spoonful of fermented glutinous rice, sprinkled with crispy peanuts, sweet and sour hawthorn slices, and a few soft and glutinous small dumplings. The moment it enters the mouth, the cool and sweet taste dispels the summer heat, and the multiple tastes jump on the tip of the tongue, refreshing from the tip of the tongue to the stomach, and one bite cures all the heat and fatigue. You can skip meals in summer, but you can never be without ice jelly. This bite of cool and sweet is an indispensable soul comfort in summer! Moreover, it is super simple to make, the required materials are easy to get at home, and the combination can be changed as you like, so you can easily reproduce this Sichuan and Chongqing summer delicacy.
After encountering a mouthful of coconut milk jelly with a strong coconut aroma in Sabah, I turned into a kitchen "magician" and successfully reproduced this divine delicacy! I share two treasure recipes: a light version and the original rich version (mellow milky aroma). The rich version adds whipped cream and coconut milk, and the milky aroma is directly full, so dense that it feels like eating clouds. It feels sweet to the heart when you scoop a spoonful~ However, the rich version has a slightly higher calorie content. It is super happy to satisfy your cravings occasionally. If you want to eat it often, the light version is the happy choice without "belly burden"~ Follow my steps, open the coconut steadily, and the milk jelly is smooth, and you can easily get the same sweetness!
