I just tried your recipe and it was delicious! I used tri-tip instead and it came out so tender and juicy. My two young children and husband loved it. Thanks!

I have just found this site and in particular this recipe. I am SO excited as it sounds exactly like the sweet and sour beef that our Amah use to cook for us in Singapore in the early 1960s. The fact that everyone talks of the wonderful taste of the sauce with the rice is exactly what I remember from my childhood. I have been desperately trying to find a recipe for it for years. I am hoping that a local Chinese food store may stock sweet soya sauce as I am very keen to try it out.
Keep up the good work of promoting Malaysian food – it’s yummy. My own children’s favourite meal was Nasi Goreng!

Your daging kicap looks delicious! I agree that there is not enough publicity about Malaysian food in the US in general, you know there is not even a single Malaysian restaurant in San Diego! I felt so deprived when I was living there…so luckily I like cooking hehe

I’d definitely buy your Malaysian cookbook, Bee. I also think mainstream interest in Malaysian food is growing, so maybe the editors just need a couple more big restaurant openings / travel pieces to be convinced?

Anyway, I’m also posting to say hello and a big thank you for your blog. I’ve been a huge fan for ages and have learned so much. I just started my own food blog and you’ve been a big inspiration.

This looks so good…I like a little sweetness in my savory dishes sometimes :) I know what you mean about Malaysian food…I feel the same way about Philippine food!

This really looks good. Thanks for sharing the recipe… I was getting sick of my usual ginger/scallions beef recipe.

Hi Bee, you’ve just given me a great idea for the prized bottle of kicap manis (it’s dutch-styled though) in our little kitchen. As for the M’sian cookbook you intend to write, we hope to see it one day. Perhaps the publishers have not spent a day eating hawker foods in Penang… sigh. But keep going as we love your website!
