What if I couldn’t get a fresh Mustard Green leaves (currently in Australia and stay nothing near to any Asian grocery area).. can I substitute with the pickled one instead?

the ingredients that i can see in the chai boey are just assam gelugor, dried chilies, and garlic but it’s very delicious.

In my family, this is called chai buey and yes chai buey sometimes has chiu hu char. Khong assam is a separate dish and can be made with pork ribs or fish but definitely no kua chai.

Hmmm… Perhaps in Penang this is termed differently then. Some call this Assam Chye. I swear this is what we (from my late great-grandma to grandaunts and all) call a version of Khong Assam. They come from generations of nyonya village ‘head chef’ and get rather annoyed when others call this chai buey. They are insistent that real chai buey must have jiu hi char and the works.

Whatever the name, this is one ultra delicious dish!

My late grandmother was a Nyonya, too. Khong Asam is an entirely different dish, and certainly without the leftovers and the vegetables. This is what we call chai buey.

Not according to me but from an authority of nyonya cuisine – my grandma who is a nyonya and who was once in charge of the communal nyonya kitchen in her little nyonya neighbourhood. It is also the base to make chai boey. To make a real nyonya chai boey, add all the other leftovers like ‘too tor thng’, ‘jiu hu char’, ‘chap chai char’, ‘lor bak’, ‘chap chai thng’, ‘bang kwan char’, etc. It is somewhat a family staple growing up in a large nyonya family and community.

Thumbs up on all your other nyonya dishes though! My grandma approves!

I think it’s a Chinese invention, but the Malaysian version is improvised with the use of tamarind skins and dried chilies. Do Taiwanese use them for this dish?

Which probably means it originated in the Fujian province. =b

I agree with Audrey, the best meat is Siu Yoke or BBQ pork.
