Duck and Yam Stew

Duck and Yam Stew

Whenever my mum cooked this when I was a child, I would thank my lucky stars. This must be the dish I look forward to the most. But alas! You can’t eat such fatty food everyday.

I’ve searched through stalls and restaurants, and despite the plethora of cuisines and food you can find in Singapore, you cannot find this dish served anywhere.

So, here’s my version of it. My husband loves it and I have never seen him eat more than when this dish is served. Choose yam carefully, and make sure it is not rubbery. You can see that it is fresh from the clarity and separation of colors where they harvest the root
