* Red ginger plant bud is a must in this Chinese-style rojak that is available at most hawker centers. It gives the dish a special fragrance that has no substitute. Some hawkers, however, have stopped using it as it has become quite rare and expensive. Omit it if it is unavailable. Also, do not save on peanuts as they give the rojak its unique bite and fragrance.

* Rojak is a Malay word and widely used to describe "a mixture" or "a melting pot". It is also a popular fruit and vegetable salad unique to Malaysia and Singapore.
