  4. Put the chopped mooli in a large pan and add water until it is level with the mooli, boil this for 10 minutes or until the strands of vegetable break easily when bent.
  5. Fry the bacon in another pan, add in the chopped shrimps, then mushrooms, when it’s all looking well done add the dried onions for a minute of cooking.
  6. Add the contents of the frying pan to the other pan and mix it all together on a medium heat, just for a few minutes until mixed thoroughly. Transfer the complete mixture to a large square dish to be steamed.
  7. After 10 minutes of steaming check the water level, after 20 minutes the Turnip Cake will be finished steaming. Once it’s cool you can cover and refrigerate it.
