I was at the airport waiting for my flight to Singapore, wandering around the airport bookstore, I stumbled into a small tiny little cookbook called KUIH.
The front page of the book was this delicious sweet treat. The presentation was so sweet and lovely. I flipped through a few pages and was so delighted to see awesome "kuih" that I wish to try.
The book cost less then RM10. Bought one and had book marked a few which I had scheduled to try. This is the first recipe from the cook book.

Saya ada membeli sebuah buku masakan bertajuk KUIH dalam perjalanan saya ke Singapore. Bukunya kecil nipis, dan resipi-resipi di dalamnya amat menarik perhatian saya. Presentation resipinya cukup simple dan menarik. memang sebuah buku yang saya cari-cari, resipi-resipi kuih Melayu yang ingin saya jadikan panduan, kerana saya rasa banyak lagi yang perlu saya pelajari. Muka depan bukunya adalah kuih ini, nampak cukup sweet. harga pun tak sampai RM10, apa lagi saya terus beli dan telah kenal pasti beberapa resipi yang akan saya cuba. Resipi ini adalah resipi pertama dari buku tersebut.
Kuih Bebola Kelapa ini ramuan dan methodnya seakan MOCHI Jepun, rasa pun lebih kurang sama, nak dimasukkan dalam kategori kuih Ang Ku pun boleh. Mudah membuatnya dan sesuai sebagai sajian petang. Intinya pula ialah inti biji bunga teratai, kebetulan sekarang tengah musim kuih bulan, bolehla dapatkan stok di kedai kek. So hujung minggu ini kalau tidak ada idea apa nak buat untuk sajian petang nanti cubalah resipi ini.

ReplyDeleteSalam Naz, itulah uniknya masakan kita, letak gula merah jadi buah melaka, letak warna orange jadi kuih ku, letak kelapa jadi coconut ball. Macam-macam la boleh diolah.
