 Malaysian Chinese versions of this dish add pork, fried pork
 cracklings, and sweet slices of lap cheong dried sausage.

 Chye sim is a leafy green vegetable with crunchy stems, which are
 similar in taste and texture to bok choy, which may be substituted.
 Mustard greens or sliced cabbage may also be used.
