Dish of the Month - Pan Fried Turnip Cake


Also known as lo bo gau, this is a favorite dim sum dish for many. It's made primarily from shredded radish and rice flour, but often added are dried shrimp, Chinese ham and other vegetables like carrots or onions. This results in a nice, savory flavor, and the contrast between the soft, smooth interior and crispy outside layer makes for one great bite after another.
