With simply research i've discovered that this is essentially a thick coconut and pandad custard/curd. The method seems the exact same for a regular custard, so I don't know why it would take 60 mins.

Alot of recipes seem to use pandan leaves and let it infuse but if you can't be fucked waiting just use extract.

It doesn't need to be over a double boiler either. Just put it on the direct heat and whisk. Should take seriously lie 5mins max. If it curdles slightly just chuck it through a blender.

*sigh* fucking geography lesson.

Southeast Asia starts with Burma as the western most point. Then goes east to Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, then Vietnam.

Further south, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia are lumped in.

Now: I mentioned China and Hong Kong because of their food influence, even though they're not usually considered SE Asia. Also, I'm never sure about Philippines, but I think there's some crossover with food influence.

So, no, Japan and Mongolia aren't a part of SE Asia. Neither is anything west of Burma (Bangladesh, Bhutan, etc).

All I'm here to say is that SEA food is my favourite that I've eaten so far. Malaysian, Indonesian and Thai in that order are god tier best of the best in the world. Vietnamese is pretty amazing and Cambodian food I've had was very delicious as well. Never tried Lao or Burmise food yet, and Filipino food is the worst of that region, it's actually pretty bad except for sisig.

I have an Indonesian friend who used to take me to all these SEA restaurants when he was living here. I fell in love with the food. Now he keeps pestering me about going over to visit him, I think I will next year, partly to visit him and partly to gorge myself on the food.

This is very interesting to me. I sometimes think that Western cuisine is boring and that I'd never choose it over Asian if I had the option, but then again I've been eating mostly bread and pasta my whole life so maybe I've just taken it for granted and never been without it long enough to develop a strong craving.

Brazilian Churrascaria - Possibly, one of my most favourite things to eat, ever.

Foei Gras - Only had it a few times, but I really love the texture and strength of flavour it has.

Escargot - Similar to squid, which I enjoy.

I do agree that dinuguan and certain spaghetti recipe are shit. I haven't and will never try dinuguan and other similar dishes. But Filipino food is not all that bad. If you tasted adobo and didn't like it, try another adobo made by a different family -- adobo differs a lot, depending on the recipe handed down or the adobo the cook grew up eating.

I'm not that fond of sinigang, but it's pretty popular up north. Other dishes are pretty heavy, hearty and savory, like Mechado, Caldereta, Lechon,

We're pretty influenced by Chinese and Spanish dishes, due to the Spaniards staying for 300+years, and having Chinese merchants since forever.

My favorites are probably lumpia, tocino and good old lugaw (congee).

you can find wrappers at any asian store or probably just in the asian section of any grocery store. I live in Japan so all grocery stores are asian goods stores. these were 92 cents for a pack of 10 wraps.

with one half filet of chicken breast and the corresponding amount of vegetables (about enough to fill a small salad bowl) I could fill 5 of these, so with a full breast piece you could easily pack the hell out of 10 wraps. keep in mind the more meat you put in, the less paper you have to roll up, so you have to opt between extra crispiness or extra meatiness. this one is a full balance imo

by the way, as you noticed I didn't completely submerge these in oil. it's a waste of oil to do so and takes longer to heat up. you only need enough to steep them halfway at most, and even if you can't completely cover them in oil, it's fine, you can always toast them later. believe it or not chicken breast handle reheating in a toaster oven really well. 5 mins at 250 was enough to flash these bastards and cook out a little of the oil in the process

you know, you can't really get the kind of oily horrible shit Chinese food you're used to in America. Japanese harumaki (spring rolls) have very little filling and flavor and usually aren't even crispy, hence why I gave these a go. similarly, the only fried noodles you can find in Japan are yakisoba, which taste more of bbq sauce than lo mein. so I made some mie goreng with some of the leftover oil (I drained the wok of course), onion, choy, cabbage, one egg, a package of cooked ramen noodles, goreng paste and soy sauce. it tasted a lot more like lo mein than I was expecting, so that was comfort food to me

oh yea, Rasa Malaysia has the recipe for mie goreng, but it's straight forward so I'll give you the go:

stirfry vegetables on high heat, garlic not necessary, set aside
stirfry meat (usually shrimp) and eggs if you like, toss into the vegetable mix
with enough oil to completely coat the surface of your wok, fry some pre-cooked egg or ramen noodles for 10-15 seconds. you can do this longer if you have al dente noodles.
add goreng paste and mix, return the rest of the ingredients to the wok, add 2 tsp of kecap minis or thick soy sauce and toss ingredients until completely mixed and hot

No, not really. The fillings vary, and over the years people have made different kinds of lumpia. And it's not just us that is fond of it, lumpia is popular in Indonesia and some South American countries.

It's like how burgers and sausages and spaghetti got popular in different countries.
