Chai tow kway is a common dish or dim sum of Chaoshan cuisine in Chaoshan, China. It is also popular in Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan and Vietnam, consisting of stir-fried cubes of radish cake. In some places such as Singapore, it is confusingly and mistakenly translated as carrot cake[note 1] (compare with flour-based cake).[1]
