Oden approved by a National Diver!!
the dish that will make you go "sUgOoiii OisHii"!!!
What’s more comforting than a bowl of fishcakes, soaked in a rich miso broth after a long, exhausting day?
In this episode of What Do You Want To Eat, Avvir, Singapore’s national team diver, requested for a bowl of oden, as it reminded him of the hard work he accomplished at the Fukuoka World Championships. He mentioned that Azfar’s version was ON PAR with what he enjoyed in Japan, so you can be rest assured that this recipe is legit. The highlight of this dish is said to be the tofu skin—the best at absorbing up the zhap. So if you are into that, remember to add more tau kee into your oden!
this video is in conjunction with ADHD awareness month~ We learnt from Avvir that having ADHD doesn’t mean you cant concentrate. Like many others, Avvir found diving as a space for him to focus better!
