About Chwee kueh

Chwee Kueh is a traditional Teochew dish commonly enjoyed as a breakfast or snack in Singapore and Malaysia. Made from a simple mixture of rice flour and water, these soft, steamed rice cakes are served with a savory topping of preserved radish (chai poh) sautéed with garlic and soy sauce. It offers a light, gluten-free base but can be high in sodium due to the radish topping. Chwee Kueh is low in fat and provides a quick source of carbohydrates, making it a filling option. However, the oil used in the topping preparation may add some saturated fats, so moderation is key for those watching their fat intake. Bursting with umami flavor, Chwee Kueh provides a comforting taste of Southeast Asian street food. For a healthier twist, consider enjoying it with less topping or pairing it with fresh vegetables to balance your meal.
