Title: Recipe review: Ang Ku Kueh, from A Taste of Asia, page 97
Post by: BeezeeBee on November 01, 2013, 07:13:47 am

Excellent recipe! The taste was authentic and delicious :)

Ang Ku are sweet dumplings that are shaped in moulds. It has fillings, the most popular being mung beans paste.

They are given out to family and friends in babies' full moon celebrations (baby's one month old birthday). The usual colour is auspicious red. Ang = red in Hokkien dialect. Ku = tortoise.

I've chosen not to use red colouring. The bright orange is the natural tint from golden sweet potatoes.

I had trouble steaming the mung beans. They were not cooked after 20 mins. So I cooked the beans in pressure cooker.

So happy to have made these successfully. Newbie to it ;D
