Png Kueh

Png Kueh

The last time I made this was a couple of years back and the other day when I was talking to mum about it. She said she was going to make it for church sale so I thought I’d make some as well. Not that difficult to make. Just soak the glutinous rice overnight and then it would make steaming the next day so much quicker.

Png Kueh

Ingredients for the Dough
100g Rice Flour
25g Tapioca Flour
175ml Boiling Hot water

Method for Filling
1. Put glutinous rice in steamer and steam for about 15mins until cooked. Set aside.
