Psst'!, I'm not sure which stall this picture is taken, but it look like from one of those Siang Siang Fang (Food Court, cos they always serve kueh chap in RED bowls, but most other stall do that as well (..") )

Kueh Chap (粿汁 guǒ zhī, Koay Chap), Kueh = the thick rice noodle, Chap = soup, is a very popular hokkien (NON HALAL) dish in Singapore and Kuching, it mostly contain the "kueh" which is the thick square rice noodle in soup, and with some mix of pork belly(fatty pork), pork intestine, pork ear, egg and "Tau Pok" (Dried spongy bean curd), sometimes u get some other stuff in there as well like pork heart, liver, kidney, tongue (all of those other pork spare parts, that's what i call it)& etc, normally all the pork mix is place on top of the noodle soup, or serve in another plate

Other place like Johor, K.L. and Penang do sell it as well, but some have a different variation/ combination with duck meat instead or even chicken.

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
You get it in ADELAIDE as well...
Home COOKED....... Wahahahaha.......

After stranded in Adelaide for a few years... everyone starts craving for all the good foods we missed so so SO much back home! So in order to fill up everyone taste buds... i cooked up this special meal for our regular Saturday's lunch gathering!

All the Pork "parts" is cooked with spices and dark soya sauce, "Pat Lo" they call it in Hokkien, slow cooked until it get all the flavour and colors. For the soup noodle, the noodles are square cut thick rice noodle (kueh tiao), can be brought folded & uncut in most Asian grocery, the soup for the noodle are diluted from the soup base of the pork mix, with a touch of some deep fried onion oil.

Its a bit hard to get all the innards and spare parts in this part of the world (Aus), they do sell it in most Asian Groceries, but it's quite limited.


The Kueh Chap Mix Pork Platter, the most important plate.
Clockwise from top: kidneys, intestines, boiled eggs, pork ears
Center: pork hearts.
Topped with some Fried onion.

Another Platter
Clockwise: Lean Pork, more intestine's, fatty pork on the left.
topped with some Fried onion.


The "Kueh Tiao" without the "Tieng"
Halfway through preparing the noodle soup, before adding the soup. The noodle stirred with some "Pork oil" (a MUST HAVE), just like a touch of olive oil to your pasta! *the trick is to deep fried all the pork FAT and then replace it with fried onion, so people would think it is just a DEEP FRIED ONION OIL! but it's NOT!!!

The People Enjoying the Feasts!
"The DT's Gang"
from left to right: Kueh tiao, pork intestine(in black shirt),
