Recipe • Orh Nee (Teochew Yam Paste Dessert)

Image
This traditional Teochew dessert recipe, Orh Nee , is taught to me by my Mum aka My Mum's Recipe. She's Teochew and loves her yam paste dessert! (♡˙︶˙♡) I beg to differ when she told me it was easy to make this dessert! After we finished making our Orh Nee, she agreed that it wasn't that easy afterall. Lol! 😅 But glad we did it! And reason why it wasn't easy was because this was our first attempt and we did everything manually, 纯手工! No blender! So tedious and engrossed we were while preparing, I actually forgot to take photos of some cooking steps and I stepped away to fetch Mini K from his kindergarten halfway through. Will update the missing photos when I make this dessert again! And you know the saying,"一次生,两次熟"...subsequent tries will be easier (and less messy)! (╹◡╹)♡  Due to the time and effort that went into composing this recipe, k indly do not claim recipe as your own.  If you would like to share on your blog or any other social media pl...

Recipe • Pulut Hitam Kanten

Image
This recipe is a joint effort of my mum and I...alright, she made everything from scratch while I only did the photography part! (^^) Presenting... Pulut Hitam Kanten which is Black Glutinous Rice Agar Agar. Usually bubur pulut hitam is eaten hot like sweet porridge with a drizzle of coconut milk/cream but my mum made it as kanten that's eaten chilled. Very refreshing for a change!

Unlike most saturated fat, coconut fat is MCT (Medium Chain Fatty Acid) which can be broken down by the body more easily. Coconut is also one of the richest food sources of lauric acid which has anti-viral and anti-bacterial functions.
