Chee Cheong Fun is usually eaten at breakfast in Penang and is available at many coffee shops and hawker centres. The Penang-style Chee Cheong Fun is different from the version found in other states because the sauces used to flavour the plain steamed rice flour rolls are different. The sauce used in Penang is a concoction of thick pungent shrimp paste, sugar, soy sauce and chilli paste. The main ingredient of the sauce is shrimp paste which gives it an extra pungent, savoury flavour. Other ingredients are added to create a thick, sweet and salty concoction and the proportions used depend on the individual hawker.
