The traditional Hakka Abacus Dish is a mix of yam and tapioca flour and I remembered when I was a little girl, I will knead the dough into little abacus with my Mom. I had a go on this dish and it was a joy coz my younger daughter helped by kneading the dough just like the good old days when I was beside my Mom :P
Steamed and Mashed the Yam
Mixed with Tapioca Flour
Knead into Beads
Minced the dried shrimp, mushrooms & black fungus
Fried with all ingredients Garnished with Parsley & Red Chilli
I was happy with my first attempt at this traditional dish but reckoned it would be better if only I did not add too much tapioca flour - a bit too tough.

Until the next dish folks - Hmm...if only I have this flair for baking though. Ciao!
