If you ask me to name the best savoury snack in Singapore, I would immediately point to ‘Indian Rojak’ – a uniquely Singaporean dish. Our sources say that this dish was created and originated in Singapore, since there are no traces of it in other parts of South Asia.

There are many ethnic variations of rojak in Singapore, but your eyes will surely be drawn to the bright orange rojak sauce and the plethora of fried fritters 😋 Rojak, which also translates to ‘a mix of everything’ or ‘mish-mash’, is as the name suggests. You can choose from an assortment of flour fritters and finger foods such as fried flour eggs, prawn fritters, and cow’s lungs to be dipped into the stall’s signature rojak sauce.

With so many great Indian rojak stalls around, who will emerge as the cream of the crop and earn the Best Rojak title this year? Read on to find out more about the stalls who are participating in this battle royale! The winner has not been decided, so go ahead and vote for them in Halalfoodhunt App! 🏆

1. HABIB ROJAK (WEST SIDE)

First established in 1989, Habib’s Rojak has become part of Singapore’s heritage with regular customers vying for their tasty dish for more than 30 years! You will find a snaking queue for this rojak at Ayer Rajah Food Centre at almost all times of the day! That’s how good their rojak is!

The stall was named after the current owner of the stall, Habib, by his father. Habib then took over the family business around 10 years ago. They pride themselves over procuring only the premium ingredients and making the rojak by hand daily.

One unique thing about Habib’s Rojak? – The Rojak sauce is SPICY!

The five delicacies you absolutely HAVE to add to your rojak dish would be their egg flour (Tepong Telor), crispy prawn fritter, coconut fritter (Tepong Kelapa), fish fillet and the paru (cow’s lungs)! For all of their flour fritters, you can expect a very crispy batter and soft interior 😋 You will be surprised to know that an egg flour requires some serious skill to make! You have to make sure that you fry the batter with the egg in the centre at all time. This honestly gave me a newfound appreciation for these dishes.

Habib Rojak’s extraordinary chilli gravy stole the spotlight with its slightly sweet flavour and finely chopped peanuts that balanced the tangy taste. For the most delightful, sinful treat, dip every item into this sweet sauce for that super shiok taste! 🤤

2. MINISTRY OF ROJAK (IN THE NORTH!)

One of the best Indian rojak in the North is arguably the Ministry of Rojak located in Northpoint City. As a family-owned business, Abdhus Salam is the second-generation owner of Ministry of Rojak and they have expanded into several outlets throughout Singapore. On display, you will find a large variety of rojak pieces including the usual suspects of fried flour fritters, tofu, fish and more. We recommend getting the coconut fritters, vadai, crispy prawn fritters and fish fillet! They make the coconut fritters from freshly grated coconut every single day, giving you that authentic coconut taste with every bite! The vadai has been fried in an evenly spiced batter, so it really packs a punch especially when paired with the gravy! 🤯

Ministry of Rojak’s signature sauce is spicier than most rojak stalls and the texture is just right with its soft nuttiness from the finely diced peanuts. Dipping the fried delicacies into the sauce gives off such an enjoyable spicy heat. Here at Ministry of Rojak, you know you are getting the best of the best with its premium ingredients, skilfully fried fritters, and its spicy-sweet sauce!

3. AL-MAHBOOB ROJAK (EAST SIDE!)

Everyone’s favourite rojak spot in the East has to be Al-Mahboob Rojak located at NTUC Income Tampines Junction. Al Mahboob Rojak is a casual dining restaurant where family and friends can enjoy a variety of Indian cuisine in a relaxed setting. They are known for preparing one of the best rojak ingredients around, with more than 30 delicacies to choose from. Their big prawns with flour are delightfully crackly, with the whole prawn covered in crunchy, fried batter. When dipped into their vibrant peanut sauce, you can really taste the sinful, umami flavours with every crunchy bite 😋

Try their other classic ingredients as well such as the flour with potato with its soft, bready texture, flour with egg, their fragrant coconut fritters, chicken sausage and fish fillet. Made from more than 10 ingredients, Al-Mahboob’s peanut gravy is to die for with its tangy flavour with a hint of spiciness. Who says you only need one bowl of gravy? Get more if you run out! After all, you have to drench every fried fritter into this sinful sauce for the best rojak experience.
