Steamed Rice Cakes 缽仔糕 - Kuih Kosui Recipe



One of my childhood favourites. It's a old fashioned steamed rice cake, similar to nian gao, Chinese new year cake. Same as caramel and coconut flavor, but without the sticky and much more chewy texture. Topped with a desiccated coconut and goodness! That are perfect for coconut lovers and healthy, low in fat dessert ideas to serve at your tea party.

5.5 x 3.5cm

(A)
• 45g rice flour
• 12g, potato starch

• 65g, water (you can skip it and use the same amount coconut milk instead)

• 35g brown sugar
• 10-20g, coconut palm sugar (you can skip it and use the same amount brown sugar instead)
• 15g-30g dark muscovado sugar

Above is adjust the sugar level from less sugar to lightly sweet. Everyone's taste buds work differently. so, give it a try! 

(C)
To Assemble

(steamed and ready to use)

Method:
1) In a bowl, add (A) rice flour, potato starch, wheat starch and water, stir until just combined.
