Unbelievable, a vegetarian kerabu chicken. You may think it is the processed vegetarian food ingredient that resembles and tastes like chicken. Not at all, there is totally nothing related to chicken here. This salad [kerabu] is strictly meatless though you may see there is a whole lot of stuff that looks like chicken breast shredded. Guess what that is?
This kerabu looks and tastes like a chicken kerabu which you may have eaten some Nyonya food outlets or at home. All the ingredients are in here except that the chicken breast meat has been replaced by a secret ingredient ‘Erngyii Mushrooms’.
