Kompyang

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kompyang is a hot biscuit with onions that is popular in Sitiawan and Ayer Tawar. It originates from the Fuzhou province of China.

It is made using lard, onions, salt and flour. A ball of flour is stuffed with the other ingredients and flattened with a rolling pin, then it is slapped onto the sides of a homemade traditional Chinese oven. The biscuits take approximately 15 minutes to bake. The "Cheong Cia Gong Piang Shop" in Sitiawan is one of the few bakeries still making this type of biscuit. Where there are Hockchiews you will find these traditional dishes and biscuits or bagels.
