Total Time 3 hours 10 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours 35 minutes

Yield 1 10-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups rice flour
4 cups cold water, divided
? cup dried shrimp
¾ cup Chinese bacon
4 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
2 pounds daikon radish, peeled and grated
? cup rock sugar
2 tablespoons salt

Steps:

  • Combine rice flour and 2 cups cold water in a large, heatproof mixing bowl. Mix until smooth and velvety; set aside.
  • Soak dried shrimp in 1 cup cold water in a small bowl until softened, about 15 minutes. Drain and dry shrimp, then finely chop and set aside.
  • Boil enough water to immerse bacon in a small pot, and cook to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and pat dry. Finely chop and set aside.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a wok over medium heat. Add shrimp and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add bacon. Cook for another 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Clean the wok and heat remaining oil over medium-high heat. Stir-fry daikon and rock sugar for 3 minutes. Add 1 cup water, cover the wok, and steam daikon until just cooked, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Add hot daikon mixture to the reserved rice flour mixture, mixing until daikon is well incorporated. Add bacon, shrimp, and salt; stir until evenly distributed. Pour into a 10-inch round cake pan and smooth out the top.
  • Bring some water to a boil in a wok. Place the cake pan on the wok rack, making sure the bottom half of the pan is immersed. Cover and reduce heat to medium.

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 eggs
1 1/4 cups white sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 cups cake flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons almond extract
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar, for dusting

  • Line a 9 inch square pan with waxed paper.

  • Place the yolks in a large bowl along with the sugar and water.
  • Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture has increased about three times in volume.
  • Whisk together the flour and the baking powder; sift this over the egg mixture, and fold in gently.

  • To Cook Prepare a steamer by bringing water to boil on high heat. Line each bowl with cling wrap or a piece of baking paper. Make sure the lining is as close to the sides as possible. In a mixing bowl, sift rice flour, baking powder and icing sugar. Add water and food colouring, and mix well. Just before filling the moulds with the batter add baking soda and mix well. Fill each mould to ¾ full and steam on high heat for 15-20 mins. Insert a skewer into the middle of the cake. If the skewer comes out clean, the huat kueh is ready. Remove from steamer then take the huat kueh out from the moulds to cool. Serve plain or with any breakfast spread. When it becomes dry and hard the next day, steam the cakes again before eating.
