This robust and ultra fragrant Preserved Turnip topping turned out much easier to
make than I thought!
Here's a quick video:
150g Sweet Preserved Turnip
5 Shallots
3 Cloves of Garlic
1 TB Dark Soya Sauce
2 TB Sugar
White Pepper
Preparing the turnip:
As the preserved turnip is extremely salty, it is best to soak it and drain about 5 times.
Once this is done, it's best to squeeze out as much water as your can.
