It's a popular Singapore hawker food which has a few variations such as crispy and non crispy versions, which is further broken down into dark and light versions, spicy and non spicy versions. To make the crispy version, you have to use less cake but more egg, so it is made like an omelette, it's therefore easier to do one serving at a time. The stir fry version which I am doing today is the simplest and you can do all 4 servings simultaneously.
