Dry Noodle
Ingredients : flour, egg, milk, salt, water etc.
I quite like this noodle especially for soup based noodle dishes, as I find they don't go overly soft and soggy. It is a good substitute when fresh mee is not available.

Pot steamer
I rummaged through my cupboards to see what I could use if I wanted to do some steaming using existing kitchen utensils.
The following set up could easily be used to steam homemade chee cheong fun.
Use a bowl, small pot or any available container to elevate the food tray - high enough so that the boiling water will not get into the food during the steaming process.
The food tray is put on top of the bowl.
The food tray is just one of my baking trays which fitted perfectly into the pot.
Food is covered during the steaming process.

Round Baking Tin
These are my 8" cake tins. Besides baking layered cakes, I find they are exceptionally good to use as a tray for making chee cheong fun and kway teow. The black one seems to have a better surface as the flat rice noodles seems to slide off easier than on the grey trays.

Traditional steamer
This steamer is the most common in Asia. It comes in several sections. The bottom part is for water only. Some come with several steaming trays where a lot of food can be cooked at once. My steamer (as pictured) only comes with 1 steaming tray.

Wheat Starch ~ Tung Meen Fun
Tung meen fun is wheat starch and must not be mistaken with wheat flour. It is a non-gluten flour.

Surimi Crab Flavoured Stick
I prefer to use the crab sticks as against the surimi salad mix. The crab sticks are frozen individually wheras the salad mix pack is frozen in a block form making it difficult if you only need a few pieces to make a quick salad.
Frozen and individually wrapped in plastics

Sweet Fruit Chutney
This is not the Redneck's preferred brand of fruit chutney but he has no choice as he cannot get his favourite brand anymore.
