Chwee Kueh recipe


Ingredients
200g rice flour
1,000ml tap water
(the cold water make the kueh much smoother. I have tried with boiling water but found it a bit lumpy and hard)
I also add a tinch of salt and pepper to give it a nice taste.



200g (chai por), washed and drained optional, hae bee (dried shrimp)
1 clove of garlic, chopped
2 tbsp light soy sauce
3 tbsp sugar
50ml corn oil
Method
1. Heat up a frying pan with corn oil and saute the chopped garlic till fragrant. Add preserved chai po , light soy sauce and sugar and stir fry for 2 minutes.
2. Cover the pan and lower the heat to let it simmer for 5 minutes. Transfer to a mini claypot, continue to let it simmer
3. Place rice flour in a mixing bowl and slowly pour water and stir till dissolve. Pour batter into aluminium cups or bowls and steam over high heat for 5 minutes.
4. Remove the chwee kueh from the cup and add a spoonful of chai po.

*** For overseas mamas who cannot find the right chai po, I have also tried with preserved olive veg, hae bee hiam (dried chilli shrimps paste). All tasted superb ;)ENJOY
