Rojak - The Vegetarian Fruit Salad


What is Rojak ?





Rojak (Chinese: 囉喏; pinyin: luōrĕ) is a fruit and vegetable salad dish commonly found in Malaysia,Singapore and Indonesia (where it is called rujak). The term "Rojak" is Malay for mixture, is also used as a colloquial expression for an eclectic mix, and in particular is often used to describe the multi-ethnic character of Singaporean and Malaysian society.





What are the Ingredients




Vegetarian fruit rojak consists typically of cucumber, pineapple, turnip (jicama), bean sprouts, taupok (puffed soya bean cake) and youtiao (fried dough fritters). Raw mangoes and green apples are used also. The dressing is made up of water, Plum paste(vegetarian), sugar, chili, and lime juice. Ingredients vary among vendors with some also using tamarind or black bean paste in the mix. The ingredients are cut into bite-sized portions and tossed in a bowl with the dressing and topped with chopped peanuts and a dash of ground or finely chopped bunga kantan (pink ginger bud). My CoolSpouse also like to add-in jambu air (Water apple) and honey to spice-up the taste.

Chicken Salad Recipe--By Elise

My mother and father make the best chicken salad. It's a joint effort; dad assembles all of the ingredients, mom makes the dressing. There are a few things that distinguish this chicken salad recipe from a standard version. First, we use plum preserves in the dressing. You can use any berry preserve, but as we have gallons of homemade plum preserves in the freezer waiting to be used, we use the plum. Second, the recipe includes green olives. Like capers, chopped green olives give the salad an interesting bite. Finally, we use chicken that has been roasted or broiled with the skin on, and we use the skin. This makes a huge difference in flavor.
Do you have a favorite chicken salad recipe? Please let us know about it in the comments.
3/4 lb (2-3 cups) of cooked chicken meat, skin on, coarsely chopped2 stalks celery, chopped1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped4-6 green olives, pitted and minced1/4 cup of chopped red onion1/2 to a whole apple, cored and chopped1/3 head of iceberg head lettuce, sliced and chopped
5 Tbsp mayonnaise 1 Tbsp plum preserves, or any sweet berry preserve (or a lesser amount of honey)2 teaspoons fresh squeezed lemon juiceSalt and pepper to taste
1 Prepare all of the salad ingredients and combine them in a large bowl.
2 Prepare the dressing separately. Combine the mayonnaise, preserves, and lemon juice. Taste for proper balance. The dressing should not be too sweet nor too sour. Adjust the ingredients until you have achieved the balance you want. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3 Mix the dressing in with the salad ingredients. Salt and pepper to taste.
Serves four.

Quick and Esay Breakfast Ideas
If you've got a set amount of time in the morning to feed yourself and the kids and get everybody out the door on time, breakfast sometimes slips through the cracks! Going back to school shouldn't mean skimping on nutrition - especially when it comes to breakfast. Long touted as the most important meal of the day, for most of us, its also the most rushed meal of the day. Here's some quick tips to help make sure all members of the family start the day well-nourished, even if you just have a few minutes to spare.
Instead of the usual “milk and cereal” routine, try experimenting with vanilla rice milk, almond milk, or vanilla soymilk. Because these non-dairy milks are already sweet, your little ones may be enticed to trade in their “Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs” (the cereal of choice for my favorite comic book character) for something a bit more nutritious.If you avoid all animal products, be sure you find a vegan cereal. Or, instead of cereal, try some crunchy granola with soy yogurt.
If you've never tried pre-packaged instant oatmeal, you absolutely must! Granted, its not as healthy as plain oatmeal, but kids love the variety of flavors available - my favorite is the vanilla flavor. Or, spruce up your plain oatmeal with a handful of frozen fruit and some nuts. Use agave nectar or maple syrup as a sweetener instead of sugar.
Think outside the box cereal box, that is. Who says that breakfast has to consist of bacon and eggs, cereal and milk, or pancakes? Expand your breakfast options by including foods that you wouldn't normally think of eating for breakfast. An Asian friend of mine grew up eating tofu with soy sauce and onions for breakfast. A simple stir-fry with plenty of veggies can be a great breakfast!
Flour tortillas are your friend. They can be spread with peanut butter and jelly for a kid-approved wrap, or stuffed with hummus or baba ganoush, veggies and lettuce for a quick wrap. I like to keep vegetarian deli slices on hand to toss into a flour tortilla as well. Wraps are much easier to munch on the run than a traditional sandwich with bread. Or, make a breakfast burrito! If you've got a can of beans, some salsa and maybe some soy cheese on hand, you've got the makings for a breakfast burrito. If you've got ten minutes or so to spare, you can also stuff a tortilla with to eat on the run.
Pre-made or breakfast bars are great to keep on hand, and can last several days in the refrigerator.
Keep it simple. An apple and a banana for breakfast take no time to prepare at all, and will give you a head-start in getting in your 5 daily servings of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Cruise the freezer section of your grocery store to find vegetarian breakfast “sausage” patties or veggie “bacon”. Just heat and serve as you would with meat-based sausage patties. In the produce or refrigerator section of your grocery store, you might also be able to find veggie chorizo (“soyrizo”), Tofurky-brand sausages or GimmeLean sausages. Just heat and serve, or, incorporate into a breakfast burrito.
Warm up some marinara sauce and soy cheese on a toasted English muffin or bagel for a perfect kid-sized pizza that can be eaten on the run.
Prepare your lunch the night before. That's right – lunch. I find that if I have my lunch ready to go, I have a few extra minutes to spend thinking about breakfast in the morning.
If you're really eating on the go, here's a few meals that you can eat with one hand while steering with the other (not that I do that – nor would I recommend it!):
Packaged smoothies or soy yogurt drinks. Look for Silk Live! brand ready-to-drink soymilk smoothies.
Grab a Clif or Luna bar. Both are vegan, mostly organic, and, if you can find them on sale, much less expensive than other meal replacement bars.
