Popiah on Cheng Meng



Today is Cheng Meng... having popiah on this day is like a custom or tradition of my family... dont ask me why cause I also dont know... on this day normally we went to my aunt house at Merlimau since she will do all the cooking and stuff... and we will pray our ancesters... a week after the Cheng Meng, which is next week, then only we will go to clean the tombs... the popiah ingredients and sauces is all made by my aunt... except for the popiah skin, it's ordered... so we have to wrap ourselves depends on how big you want it to be... mine was normal as you can see (hehe)... my aunt will wrapped bigger than that...

Sooo full~
