Steamed Cassava Cake in a Bundt Pan




In Southeast Asia, cassava or tapioca is a widely used ingredient. It can also be sliced, fried, and turned into cassava chips, which make a delightful snack when combined with a particular chilli sauce. It can also be converted into cakes, meals, and basic foods.

This cassava or tapioca cake can be prepared in several methods, including baking, steaming, wrapping in banana leaves, and baking or steaming. There are numerous recipes for this pastry that can be made with or without eggs and with or without butter. Some individuals prefer waxy ones, others prefer hard ones, some prefer sweet ones, some prefer milky flavours, and still, others prefer coconut flavors—some are even dusted with finely chopped coconut.

I have experimented with various methods. The recipe I'm sharing today was modified to have the texture and flavour I prefer. I've done it multiple times with wonderful results.

The taste of this steamed cassava cake is perfect, and the preparation is incredibly straightforward. It has a lovely texture and is not overly sweet. Coconut milk and grated cassava are mixed to create this delicious delicacy.


The cassava liquid is supposed to be drained in several internet recipes. In my opinion, the best flavour should be preserved. so I don't do that.  

Cassava is a starchy root. The root is therefore the key component of this dessert. For this recipe, flour or starch cannot be used as a substitute.

I tried steaming it this time in a Bundt pan instead of my usual 8" square cake pan, which turned even the easiest cake recipe into something lovely. For bakers of all skill levels, a Bundt is an excellent investment that is effortlessly beautiful.

Are you starting to drool over this delectable dessert? Let us get all the ingredients to hand and detailed instructions to get started.

Ondeh-Ondeh in 3 flavour (椰丝球)

Today made a popular dessert in Malaysia, “Ondeh Ondeh”, a type of Nyonya recipe. It is also called “Buah Melaka” because it looks like the fruit of the Malacca tree. The procedure of making is easy. The flavoured glutinous rice balls have grated fresh coconut on the outside and melting Gula Melaka, or palm sugar, inside. The white, milky coconut shreds and little balls of various colours appear fresh and natural. and has a charming appearance. The glutinous rice balls, soft glutinous and chewy are determined by the amount of water and cooking time. The softer the rice balls, the more water and more time it boiled. We like our coconut shreds to be moist and crisp, the melted Gula Melaka to be rich and flavorful, and the texture to be somewhat mushy and sticky. It seems like the nostalgic flavour of my childhood is returning. In addition to the traditional pandan flavour, I have included instructions for making it with sweet potatoes and pumpkin. Of all the flavours of "ondeh...

So, this year I am going to share some of jelly mooncakes that I love. Making jelly mooncakes isn't difficult, and I'm always eagerly anticipating the finished product, because there are always so many surprises when I cut into it.

Today I am going to transform it into a mooncake.   Other than the beautiful moss from cooking and stirring the mixture. The white layer part that looks like shredded coconut which is actually made from the mixture of agar powder, fresh coconut water and coconut milk. Grate it after it is set...

Braised Pork Belly Char Siu on Stove

  Grilling char Siu is time-consuming? Yes, indeed!! The marinating and cooking steps involved in grilling char Siu might take a lot of time.   In order to allow the flavors to seep into the meat, the traditional process involves marinating the pork for a few hours, often overnight.   Additionally, grilling might take some time, particularly if you want that distinctive char. And also create a crispy surface and smoky flavor. You might say can make char siu, or Chinese BBQ pork with oven baking, or air frying. Oven baking produces an excellent crust and a balance of juiciness. Air fryer is the quickest way to produce a crispy outside and a soft within, although it might not cook as uniformly as oven baking. Today I am sharing a super easy stove top version. You even get a lovely sauce to go with it, and the results are just incredible. It lacks charred or roasted flavor of charcoal because it is cooked entirely on the hob.   Trust me, this method is definitely ...
