It's been so long since I last blogged. Excuse my long absence, I just gave birth to a baby boy about one month after my June's Oreo muffins post.
I am not back to baking yet. The only food I make with an oven now is pizza - made using store-bought crust or toasted bread.
So I'm bouncing back to the stove - kuih is now an option! The last time I made kuih could be traced back when I was still in secondary school, attending Life Skills (Kemahiran Hidup) classes. Onde-onde was the recipe my teacher assigned, now I'm remaking them according to my memory and some useful recipes I have found online. (Refer to Nyonya Cooking and My Resipi.)
Instead of using palm sugar or gula melaka, I decided to use 黑糖蜜枣 (literally black sugar honey jujube) my sister-in-law brought back from HK. They come in blocks and can be eaten as candies, with gingery tang! So my onde-onde was filled with gingery sugar instead of the sweet aroma of palm sugar.
I didn't measure my ingredients! The amounts I listed below are just approximations.
