Steamed Black Sesame Kuih

This black sesame kuih is actually originated from Hong Kong if not mistaken. It is one of the many popular dishes served in most of the dim sum restaurants in Hong Kong. I haven't seen this kind of kuih available here so far. This recipe has been in my list to do for ages. Now, it's about time for me to give it a go. Come on let's join me for some fun!


Ingredients :
(A)
270gm    tapioca flour
30gm   rice flour
70gm   black sesame powder
2 tbsp  wheat starch (tung fun)

(B)
180gm   sugar
270ml    boiling water

(C)
200ml    water
100ml    thick coconut milk

Method :
(1) combine ingredients (A) in a big bowl and mix well.
(2) dissolved sugar into boiling for ingredients (B).
(3) now, stir together all ingredients and mix to combine.
(4) for steaming, greased a 7" square tray with oil and steam mixture layer by layer (by using a soup ladle).
(5) for 1st 3 layers steam for 3 mins, 4th & 5th & 6th layer steam for 3.5mins and the rest steam for 4 mins. Final layer steam for 6 mins.
(6) then leave cool completely before slicing it with a plastic cutter (highly recommended).

This black sesame kuih is quite similar to my steamed sweet potato kuih. The texture is very chewy & springy and you can actually eat it layer by layer just like those 9 layer nyonya kuih. I'm sure you will too enjoy the unique flavour of this black sesame dessert. Have fun!
