Hi guys! How's ur life? I hope y'all very well and happy.
Do u know about the steamed layer cakes? Have u taste them?
Steamed layer cake is one of Indonesian traditional food. It's a kind of street food too. It looks colorful in each layer and tastes sweet. So it's liked by people of all ages, even kids. The main ingredient is rice flour.
I'm gonna tell u here, this is the first time i tried to make steamed layer cake. Did i fail? Not at all! The way to make it is super-duper easy, and the ingredients aren't too many. Some layer cakes may use additional ingredients such as starch or tapioca flour. But i didn't. I made the layer cake as simple as possible with rice flour. I'm sure u can make it too. Here's the recipe :
Ingredients
- 10 tbsp of rice flour
- 7 tbsp of sugar
- 65 ml of coconut cream
- 5 drops of food coloring (any color, but i used green)
- 2 glasses of water
Procedures
Firstly, prepare a bowl. Then pour the coconut cream into the bowl.
Pour water and stir well.
Add sugar and stir until they're completely mixed.
After that, pour the rice flour. Stir gently with spoon or whisker.
Then, heat the steamer on the stove.
While waiting for the steamer to heat up, prepare another bowl.
Divide the cake batter into 2 parts.
Okay, let's say the left one is batter A, and the right one is batter B.
Add food coloring to batter A. Stir well.
For batter B, u can use another color, or just leave it plain like this.
After that, prepare the cake pan. Or u can also use microwaveable (heat-resistant) food container like this.
Fill with batter A, but not too much. It's about 1 cm.
Then place the filled cake pan in the heated steamer. Steam for 5 minutes.
Steam alternately, and so on. Each layer is steamed for 5 minutes. And for the last layer, steam for 25 minutes.
When the steaming is done, take the cake pan outta the steamer. Let it cool down for a while.
Then remove the cake pan and place the layer cake on a plate. Slice it with a knife.
And, ta-daaa... The steamed layer cake is ready to serve!
It's easy, right? U can do it by yourself too. Good luck!
Okay, that's about the steamed layer cake recipe. Hope u like it. Sorry if i made some mistakes in this post. And thanks alot for ur visit!
