Nyonya Kuih - Kuih Kochi

The first post of 2011 is about food. I love food, no doubt. My mother is very good at making kuih. Kuih is the Malay word for cakes or pastries. One of the kuih she is good at making is Kuih Kochi. It is a type of Nyonya kuih, I think, which is wrapped with banana leaf. The skin of kuih is made from glutinous rice with pandan flavored and the filling is made from grated coconut with palm sugar flavor. This kuih is best to eat when it is hot because the skin is more tender. 

Throwing in the filling.






The final product.
