Toast Box has released a deep fried version of its Teo Chew Double Delight Bak Zhang.

The sweet-savoury item is made with glutinous rice, pork, shiitake mushroom, chestnut, and homemade sweet tau sar (grounded mung beans).

While such dumplings are usually steamed, Toast Box has taken the liberty of deep frying it and serving it with a sweet spicy dark sauce, as well as a side of pickled cucumbers.

If this sounds like a "hello polis" product to you — as several social media users have commented —  it actually reminds us of png kueh (literally rice kueh), which is sometimes pan-fried to delicious ends.

The deep fried dumpling costs S$6.80 à la carte, or S$7.80 with a medium-sized coffee.

It is now available for takeaway, and for delivery on GrabFood, Foodpanda, and Deliveroo.
