Susur Lee's Signature Slaw

Master chef Susur Lee welcomes us to Lee Restaurant and the adjoining Lee Lounge in downtown Toronto for a glimpse into his personality but more importantly, his kitchen. There he shows us how to prepare his signature dish, Singaporean Slaw. It's a fresh year-round dish that features 18 ingredients that all add up to one "party in your mouth."Related: Susur Lee's Watermelon Salad

his kids are spoiled and live off his legacy

[@islifeacomedy3861]

That’s literally the job of a parent. And before you comment woosh with way to many o’s, maybe go give your dad a call. Your failures in life weren’t because he wasn’t shit.

[@ragayclark]

it cracked me up when he just kept adding ingredients, i thought it was never going to end haha.

[@mescellaneous]

it's the fuckin transition HAHA

[@CaptPicard81]

I'm stoned and it was blowing my mind, glad it wasn't just me

Shows that if you keep adding things on the plate, you ll eventually become an iron chef

[@charlymrivera7236]

[@roxie_s]

The salad is Yu sheng! An unique dish from Singapore! Supposedly to symbolise all the good wishes for everyone who shared the dish ❤ Thanks for sharing with the world. I am so glad that you have a restaurant in Singapore! ❤❤❤ Love your vibe!

[@Dark2Reaper]

I ordered this many many years ago and it was delicious.

[@Raj.Sakaria]

That salad lives up to his name. Other celebrity chefs’ salad are not this good.

[@amanSpawn00]

It’s crazy, how I’ve known of this man for what seems like at least 2 decades. And I never knew his name until today

[@feederchua]

oh my lord, i just realised why it's a Singaporean Slaw. that's the effin YU SHENG that we eat every Chinese New Year! Of sorts.

[@Towkeeyoh]

Even more decadent than the typical yu sheng, looks wicked good

[@sparda9060]

Yeah in Vietnamese culture we also eat that too in most family celebrations like weddings, birthdays, house parties, and social gatherings.

[@dennisn.4438]

I never knew slaw can look soooo good

[@kayflip2233]

Singapore Slaw is literally the best salad I've ever had. Doesn't even taste like salad really, more like a pad thai but without the noodles and instead of the tamarind sauce, you get a sweet, fruity taste from the sauces he uses. Tastes crunchy, sweet, fresh, citrusy. Very Thai and Vietnamese inspired. Goes really well with grilled salmon. So damn good.

THIS SALAD IS LIFE FOR ME!!!!

[@suemyers4758]

It’s amazing.

[@swicheroo1]

The salad looks amazing. Of course, with these fine dining places, the trick with revealing recipes is that they involve so many steps and ingredients, it's almost impossible to replicate...or barely worthwhile. My friend--a notable food celebrity--just gave me the Thomas Keller cookbook. She couldn't get past the infusions. Everything was slave labor. I like the idea of two types of dressings meeting in the middle, though...and I'll try to do that!

[@esseeedee]

It’s just one type of dressing he just applies it on the bottom as well as the top.

[@kevod09]

That Salad is just wow 🤤

[@felixlee9645]

Had some myself. It was amazing

[@jajinx2]

This slaw is based on Yu Sheng which is traditionally eaten during Chinese New Year in Singapore. The tossing is for prosperity and blessings but really I'm just here for the taste. I wanna be able to make my own version to enjoy any time of the year.

I have tried many many slaw. I can never go for a second bite. I guess I'm not a slaw person. But I would love to one day try this.
