I'm so good? 10 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:35,840 Speaker 3: And today on the show, I said, We've got Poling 11 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 3: Yo coming up on the show. I've never actually used 12 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 3: your name in full. I always just say Poe, but 13 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 3: I like the cadence of Poling Yo. It might be 14 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 3: a thing. Now. 15 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: Well, people get confused because Poling is actually in my 16 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: full name, and then yao, and people always think it's 17 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: ling yao. 18 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 3: Ah, so it's your name, is Poling? 19 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: Poling is your Christian name? 20 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah mu full name. Yeah. 21 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 3: Because this happened with Andau. Remember when we first met Adeau, 22 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 3: you thought Andeau his whole name was just aau. 23 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 2: Not on that was a long time ago. 24 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 3: Well you also with Braith and Askeda you said Braith, and. 25 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 2: It was confusing happened, But I wasn't aware that you 26 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 2: were Malaysian. 27 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I was bought we were Chinese back, so 28 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: this is another point of confusion. Chinese but born in Malaysia. 29 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: So we're like fifth generation Chinese born in Malaysia. 30 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 2: I've been to Malaysia. It's a beautiful part of the world. 31 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: I guess to do this new show. When they said, hey, 32 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: do you want to talk about Malaysian food, you said, 33 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,479 Speaker 2: I'll get my passport ready. But you couldn't go anywhere. 34 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: Yeah that's right, Yeah, no, but I loved what we did. 35 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: It was such a it was so great. Well, it 36 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: was so lucky just to be I would travel around Australia, 37 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: to be honest. 38 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 2: So you looked at all the Malaysian food in Australia 39 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 2: and the people doing great Malaysian food here. 40 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, we were to some really interesting parts, like 41 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: there's a spot in western Australia called Catanning where there's 42 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: a really huge Malaysian migrant population, but they're awful. Christmas Island. 43 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: How interesting is that? 44 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: The basis? What's the basis of Malaysian food. It's it's 45 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 2: not as spicy as tie, is it, but a bit 46 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 2: more interesting than Indonesian, would you say, which is actually 47 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 2: quite bland. 48 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: I think, oh, I don't want to do. 49 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 3: Was starting to other path is where World War three starts. 50 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: You exactly rarely shared a lot of the common dishes 51 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: with Indonesia, but it is quite similar to Indonesian. Actually. 52 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: But what we have I think that's really that's really 53 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: unusual is and that makes Malaysian cuisine very confusing for 54 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 1: a lot of people is that there's Malaysian, Indians and 55 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: Chinese have lived together for a long time, and so 56 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: the cuisine has legitimate leaf fused. So we have things 57 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: that are very singularly Chinese, very singularly Malay, and very 58 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: singularly Indian, and then there's all the ones in between. 59 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: So Yonya is the Chinese Malay fusion, also called Purana kan, 60 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: and that comes from Chinese migrants coming across the straight 61 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: into marrying with the Malays and converting to Islam as well, 62 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: and so the food has become that, and so people 63 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: get a little bit confused. So you can have to say, 64 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: like Chinaese chicken liceed, which is obviously Chinese dish, but 65 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: it's also it's also very much considered a Malaysian dish. 66 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: It's a bit like you know in Britain, like Indian 67 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: food is quite brush is still in a way. Well. 68 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 3: And because in Australia we invented the dim sim, didn't 69 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 3: we In Bendigo and Victoria. That's where because the Chinese 70 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 3: uhl for the gold mines, I came in and they 71 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 3: made this and that's where the the dim sim was born. 72 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 3: Feld gold Fields in Bendigo, that's where the dim sim 73 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 3: was invented. 74 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: I think I met Elizabeth Chong. Do you remember her? No, 75 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: she's a Chinese cook. She's one of the first ones 76 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: ever to appear on Telly. She's probably in her eighties. 77 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: Ouse she's bloody fabulous and she I think her dad, 78 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: her dad did that, he invented them. 79 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 3: The dim sim for me is the fate my I 80 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 3: love esteam dim sim. It's my favorite thing in the 81 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 3: world so much so I'll even get those ones, those 82 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 3: ratty ones that you get from Coal's, you know, the 83 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 3: frozen ones, and I just put him in the steamer 84 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 3: and they are just fantastic. I don't know what's in them, 85 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 3: but they're great. 86 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 1: I think he invented the you know, the fish and 87 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: chip shot one. You know, yeah, it's always been around 88 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: Sooner for a long time, but he he, he made 89 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: that version of it. 90 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 3: So that would have been an easy show for you 91 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 3: and Adam to do.
