Farlim Rojak

Although I am not a rojak fan now, I used to have it weekly. She has been selling here for years, if not mistaken, since primary.

I am sure with wikipedia everyone knows what is Rojak so no need to explain for that. For me, I like to dip apple slices with rojak sauce :D

Yupz, those are tubs of fresh prawn paste and sweet bean paste. Besides here, she also sells at SMK Air Itam on alternate days but its uncertain which day is for which place.

These are regular rojak ingredients i.e. cucumber, mengkuang, pineapple, jambu batu, sour mangoes and cuttle fish (in the red pail). The aunty uses a plastic sheet to cover the fruits to avoid flies hovering over them.

When you stand beside the aunty's stall, you would see that her rojak sauce ingredients are kept in a steel case. There would be sweet bean paste, prawn paste, grinded roasted peanuts, chilli and grinded charcoal roasted belacan. Yupz, belacan (dried shrimp paste).

Normally we would ask rojak aunty to separate the sauce from the fruits so we can keep the leftover sauce and dip in our own fruit cuts.

So thick, smooth and rich. Her rojak is okay. Well at least nicer than the ones I've tried at other places. Shrimp paste and sweet bean paste was well cooked, thus both do not have raw smell lingering around. Its not so much on the sweet taste but it also has the salty belacan bits and shrimp paste (har kou) to balance it.

Loads of peanuts. Back then, I used to add another 50 sen worth of peanuts into it :P I like to munch on roasted peanuts and it adds more fragrance to the rojak sauce.


Location:
Beside 7D, Lebuhraya Thean Teik, Desa Intan, Farlim.
Desa Intan has blue colour flats and situated beside Farlim Police Station / opposite Farlim Wet Market.
The stall is just a few steps away from Farlim Post Office.

Sometimes she sells in front of SMK Air Itam in the hot afternoons.

Happy reading~
