Pig fallopian tubes ( Chinese: 生肠; pinyin: shēng cháng; Cantonese: sang cheong) is a traditional, Malaysian stir-fry dish.
Preparation and description
The dish is prepared by stir-frying fallopian tubes (sometimes the uterus) [1] of pigs and serving chopped with vegetables and sauce such as kung pao sauce [2] or soy sauce with ginger and onions; [3] the meat is relatively flavorless but is a good vehicle for sauce. Other protein sources such as dried shrimp may be added. [4] The texture of the meat has been described as combining crunch with springiness. [1] [2]
Although traditional, the dish is not often served in Singapore. [4]
Cultural impact
Consumption of pig fallopian tubes supposedly has a beneficial effect on a woman's fertility. [4] It has been categorized by Catherine Ling of CNN as one of the "10 grossest foods in Singapore". [2]
The dish is sometimes imprecisely referred to as pig intestine. [5] One Singapore restaurant was serving it in 2015 as "Famous Pig's Intestines". [3]
