This is a live, interactive, hands-on cooking class held online via Zoom. See our event policies at the bottom of this webpage.

When you visit the lovely island of Penang, everyone will tell you where to eat the best Char Kuey Teow, the ultimate street food dish. This noodle dish is so strongly associated with Penang that in the rest of Malaysia, CKT is always referred to Penang Char Kuey Teow. Should you find the best CKT hawker stall, you should always order a few sticks of satay as an appetizer.

Learn some tricks to getting good wok hei (hint, if you have a blowtorch, that would be helpful), and (pan) grilling the Asian way to get juicy satays.  

 

MENU

Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce – Turmeric-marinated Chicken Skewers

Char Kuey Teow – Fried Rice Noodles with Shrimp, Lap Cheung Sausage, Egg, Bean Sprouts and some good wok hei
