To Cook
- Prepare a steamer by bringing water to boil on high heat.
- Line each bowl with cling wrap or a piece of baking paper. Make sure the lining is as close to the sides as possible.
- In a mixing bowl, sift rice flour, baking powder and icing sugar. Add water and food colouring, and mix well.
- Just before filling the moulds with the batter add baking soda and mix well.
- Fill each mould to ¾ full and steam on high heat for 15-20 mins. Insert a skewer into the middle of the cake. If the skewer comes out clean, the huat kueh is ready.
- Remove from steamer then take the huat kueh out from the moulds to cool.
- Serve plain or with any breakfast spread. When it becomes dry and hard the next day, steam the cakes again before eating.
Should i add more water if my huat kueh turns out to be too hard?
Hi JEhm, yes, you can add more water. Alternatively, you can also add some milk or coconut milk. Depending on the flour you use, the huat kueh could turn out drier or a little bit more moist. But if the kueh turns hard the next day, all you need to do is steam it again.
