Pasar Tani Mega Kampung Simee In Ipoh – Part 2/3
December 19, 2009
After we have photographed to our hearts’ content the plants at the nursery stalls, we hopped over to where a strong stench emanated from. The two guys manning the stall were very friendly. When they saw us with our cameras, they encouraged us to take photos of their goods. They were selling a variety of salted fishes, dried anchovies, dried prawns, dried cuttlefishes and salted duck eggs.
I had wanted to get some heh bee (dried prawns) and ikan bilis halus (dried baby anchovies). The heh bee is for cooking dried prawns porridge. The dried baby anchovies I would steam with ginger and garlic in oil and eat with rice. The stall did not have what I wanted. I ended up taking only photographs, enjoying the pungence of the salted fishes and silently salivating over the dishes I could cook with the salted fishes available.

Salted duck eggs – telur itik masin.

Salted fish – ikan masin.

Dried cuttlefish – sotong kering.

Friendly salted fish stall keeper.

Dried prawns – heh bee – udang kering.

Pulau Pangkor dried anchovies – ikan bilis kasar Pangkor.
