Love my Chinese salad - Rojak, but the amount of sugar puts me off! Honey makes a good alternative & taste just as good. Choice of ingredient is really up to you! Crispy you tiao is most important for me. Do a very hot & quick toast to maintain the soft fluffy inside.

Suggestion: Do a 50/50 mix of finely grounded & coarsely grounded peanut. Finely grounded peanut helps thicken the sauce while coarsely grounded peanut gives texture to the dish.
