An Eurasian Cuisine?

Question

Any examples of main meals, drinks and desserts that are from an Eurasian Cuisine? Also, I need to know how it symbolises a group of Eurasian people. Please help!

Answer 1

This is not easy to explain in a few words.
Euroasian cuisin is a form of fusion cuisine. Fusion cuisine combines elements of various culinary traditions while not fitting specifically into any.
A menu sampling from a menu of an American-European-Japanese restaurant might include the following items:
Sake cocktails
Salad with crisp nori topping, and a miso-cilantro vinaigrette dressing
Rock shrimp dumplings
Eel, lettuce and tomato sushi handroll
Poached tofu
A dessert: healthy & delicious puddings which include Mango, Sesame, Green Tea, Sago and Custard. Pancakes too.
Drinks: Mocktails,( party drinks that do not contain alcohol) Milk Teas, Blended Icy Drinks & various teas.

Eurasian cuisine is a fusion of both east and west, as is the heritage of the Singapore Eurasian.

A standard formal dinner consists of seven or eight dishes of which at least two are curries, a fried or roasted dish, a pie, stir-fried vegetables, salad, pickles and sambals. A variety of cakes, pastries and trifle are normally served as dessert.

The everyday Eurasian meal consists of a curry accompanied by stir-fried vegetables with small pieces of meat or seafood. A sambal is also served. All dishes are placed on the table at the same time and served with rice.

Singaporean Curry

1 kg chicken - cut into bite-sized pieces

5 or 6 large onions ground till fine

3 tablespoon ground chilli - add more chilli for a hotter curry

5 or 6 whole red fresh chillies

1 tsp pepper. salt, a little dark soya sauce

2 large potatoes peeled and quartered

1- 2inch piece ginger cut in julienne strips

1 cucumber cut into 3 or 4 segments. Split each segment into
half remove seeds.

4 or 5 cabbage leaves - cut into bite -size pieces.

1 strip char siew - cut in thick slices

1 strip babi panggang - cut in thick slices

1 packet chicken frankfurters - cut each fankfurter into 3 pieces

1 teaspoon mustard seed - fried separately and then ground till fine vinegar, salt to taste.

Method

Marinate chicken pieces with salt, pepper and dark sauce. Add oil ,fry chicken pieces, remove. Fry potatoes and put aside. Fry onions, ground mustard seeds, ground chilli and ginger till brown. Add in chicken pieces keep on frying until ingredients are incorporated into chicken. Remove, place in pot with potatoes. Cover chicken with water and bring to boil. Allow to simmer until chicken and potatoes are cooked. Add only sufficient water to cover chicken pieces, add water gradually to the gravy, this will give your curry a thick consistency. Add cucumber and cabbage cook until tender. Add char siew, babi panggang, sausages. Add vinegar. Bring to boil, adjust seasoning according to taste. Remove from heat. Serve with rice or French bread.
