This is a highly requested recipe and we’re excited that we can finally dish it out to you. Roland got this recipe from our uncle who is a retired zichar chef. It took him a few tries and a few consultations with his cousin who is still a zichar chef, to get this right. Hopefully you can make this recipe on your first try. Roland's cousin suggested that we use Thai yam because its texture is the best for yam ring so if possible, get Thai yam.

According to Hungrygowhere, yam ring is a uniquely Singapore dish, which was first created as a vegetarian dish. Today yam ring or sometimes referred to as yam basket, has become a zichar staple. You can read more about the origin of yam ring here: https://www.hungrygowhere.com/gallery/the-history-behind-singapore-s-original-food-*gid-09a13101/fda80200
If you don't want to make the yam ring, you can also just cook the seafood and chicken stir fry as it is and it'll be a perfect meal too.

Ingredients:
Serves 4 - 5 pax
For yam ring
---------
300g Thai yam
1 teaspoon five spice powder (https://amzn.to/36oryqu or make it yourself https://youtu.be/4N39Ib8lIsQ)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
A few dashes of white pepper (https://amzn.to/2zqCvMa0
60g wheat starch (the one we used: Sunflower Wheat Starch - Tim Sum Flour https://fairprice.com.sg/product/sunflower-tim-sum-flour-wheat-starch-500g-147430)
90ml (slightly more than 1/3 cup) hot water
30g lard (can be replaced with margarine, butter or vegetable shortening)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder (https://amzn.to/2ZqpSvr)
Note: If you don't know how to get lard, just buy a piece of pork fat from your butcher and follow this video: https://youtu.be/PHlRSf6VpQo. The oil that comes out from the pork fat is lard - just let it cool down and then store it in the fridge and it will solidify. Use the crispy lard in your dishes by sprinkling some over. Super yummy!
For stir fry
---------
2 cloves garlic
20g sliced carrots
125ml (1/2 cup) water
2 tablespoons oyster sauce (https://amzn.to/2zmZ84i)

120g shrimp (prawns)
