Got to know about the Sin Weng Fai Peanut Candy (新荣辉咸香花生糖) when colleague bought some back from her hometown of Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia. Unlike the traditional hard style peanut brittle, this one is crispy and crunchy with just the right balance of sweetness and saltiness. The reason is because the manufacturer uses minimum caramel to bind the peanuts 🥜 together and a little sprinkle of salt is added to give it that slight salty aftertaste. Later we found out this traditional snack is also available locally in Singapore at one of the bakeries near where I am working.

I attached a cooking video of how to make this Peanut Candy using only two ingredients - Peanuts and Sugar. You can use less sugar if you prefer it to be less sweet or use salted peanuts if you want it savoury. Do note, this is not my video.

Suka Hati Kopitiam @ Damansara Perdana, Selangor

A chain kopitiam we only just tried today. It's a Malay style Ipoh Kopitiam. Food selection has more Malay dishes like lontong and me ladna.

We got the dry wantan mee and roti sarang burung. The wantan mee was overcooked, making the texture too soft for our liking. There was a hint too much dark soy sauce and a little too salty. The roti sarang burung was not crispy enough, the two eggs were half boiled which was something I really enjoyed but somehow it already came with too much of a dash of soy sauce, making it too salty.

Not too thrilled with our visit this time, perhaps we'll try the rice and Malay dishes next time.
