Ida

thanks
Ida, I am sorry I am not able to share this recipe. But if you like you can try Jo's (from Jodeli) recipe. I heard it's as good.
Hi Germaine, I make pineapple tarts, almond cookies and peanut cookies for sale. My aunty is also selling her very very good homemade charchoal grilled love letters. Send me an email to leeleet@gmail.com if you are interested.
Thanks Leelee, for yr reply. I'll give jo's recipe a shot and hopefully DD will fall in love with it also.

Hi anonymous, glad the recipe turned out good for you. First time making kueh and already it turned out good. You have the talent of baking in you. Hehehe
Hi Hugbear,
Do I dissolve the gula melaka, sugar and coconut milk over heat? Also do you have any recipe for almond cookies? Would greatly appreciate it!
Many thanks
June
Hi June,
Yes, dissolve gula melaka, sugar and coconut over fire. Sift and leave aside to cool.
I believe I do have some almond cookies recipe in some of the cookbooks that I have. Let me check and revert.
Hi Hugbear,

Thanks so much for sharing,

Hi Lee,
Thank you for sharing this recipe! I ate half of it myself. I can always trust the amount of sugar recommended for ALL your recipes. It's really safe to follow, taste great and yet not overly sweet.
Appreciate LOTS!
Hi Amy, hahaha, this is one of my favourite kueh kueh too. You are most welcome my dear.
hi hugbear! I'm very new to making this, in fact tis will be my first attempt, I hope soon...
1) how do I grate the tapioca?
2) do I drain the juice from the tapioca?
3) how to choose tapioca?
4) can i thin thick coconut milk by adding 50ml water to 50ml thick coconut milk (tetra packed)?
Thank you for sharing so many homemade goodness recipes!! (^_^)
1) Grate it with a grater, the fine one.
2) Yes drain the water from the grated tapioca.
3) I am not to sure. I just make sure the tapioca look nice and solid.
4) Yes, you can do that.
Ah! My favourite kueh ever! I'm hungry and drooling right now!
Hi, Lee!
Tried it with castor sugar but I forgot about the eggs and butter though, yet it still turns out good! Amazing! Btw, do you have any tips in making grating tapioca less tedious? Sorry...ya if this is do much to ask.
No other better ways excpet that some wet markets sell the ready grated tapioca (same store as the one selling grated coconut).
hi hugbear,
wat's the weight of the tapioca to buy to grate into 1kg? thanks
Hi Hugbear,
my first attempt & it so yummy..my friends love it.I bought grated
tapioca at KK wet market (s'pore) after work.
Thank you..
cheers

hi lee lee,
made this kueh last saturday. though i'm using 300ml thin coconut milk and 100ml thick coconut milk coz forgot to bring recipe when go shopping but it still turns out soft n moist. will be making it again this saturday. thanks for sharing the superb recipe.
Susan, I love KK wet market. They have got so many things selling there. But too bad it is too far from where I stay.
Delia, you are welcome.
Do i need to boil the tapioca first before grating?
Hello! If I were to omit gula melaka and use all castor sugar instead, how much castor sugar should I use?
No need to boil first. You need to grate it raw.
If you omit gula melaka, then use between 200g to 250g of sugar depending on how sweet you want it.
LeeLee,
I made this kueh last Saturday for a Mid-Autumn get together and I must say that it was brilliant. The hardest part was grating the tapioca after that it's a breeze. I used only white sugar 250gm but I think I'd perhaps use 280gm if I were to bake this again. Thanks a bunch.
Hi Natasya, I do agree that the hardest part is to grate the tapioca. After that everything is just mixing and bake.
Hi Hugbear,
If I halve this recipe, what adjustments do you recommend I make to the cooking time and to the baking tray size?
How shallow/what height should the baking tray size be?
Sorry for asking so many questions, hope you can help me please. Thank you :)
Sue, use a 7x7 inch or a 6x6 inch tray to bake half a recipe. Bake for about 50 min to 1 hour but check for the top occasionally. If it is too dark, cover with a foil and continue baking. The height can be about 3 to 4 inches.
Hi. The photo looks great! Thank you for sharing your recipe. Just wondering if the same amount of Tapioca flour can be used instead of the fresh one. I live in Australia and can't find fresh or frozen tapioca...Thanks! Yoshi
I am afraid you cannot use all tapioca flour. The texture will be totally off.
Thanks so much for your reply - much appreciated! I will try to find real tapioca this weekend. Can't wait to try your recipe...!
Finally found frozen tapioca and made the cake today. Can I just say...it was soooooo good. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe and your advice!
