My friend Choy came over to visit me last week and we decided to make Kuih Lapis . We were pretty happy with the kuih lapis as the layer and colors turn out beautifully.Ingredients :
230g rice flour
45g corn starch
840 ml coconut milk
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pandan paste
A few drops yellow and red colouring
For the syrup
280g castor sugar
250ml water
3 pandan leaves
1. Combine sugar, water and pandan leaves in a saucepan. Bring to a boil to dissolve the sugar. Set aside to cool.2. Put rice flour, cornstarch and salt into a large mixing bowl. Pour in coconut milk mix well. Stir in syrup. Strain the batter to ensure it is free from lumps.
3. Divide batter into 3 equal portions. One add in the pandan paste (green), one in yellow coloring and one in red coloring. From each color portion divide into 3 equal portions (this will ensure you will get 9 layers of kueh)
4. Place a greased 8 inch tray in the steamer and heat up for 4–5 minutes.
5. Steam the batter layer by layer. Pour the 1st layer of batter on the heated tray. Cover and steam over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until set.
6. Follow by the next color and steam for 2-3 minutes and then the next layer.
7. Repeat the procedure, alternating the color until all the batter is used up.
8. After the final layer is set, steam the kuih for a further 20 minutes.
9. Cool the kuih thoroughly before cutting into it.
I enter this kueh in Indigo Welcome To Wonderland 18th birthday blog party.
Note : For this Kueh you can use any color or as many layers as you like.
