Not planned, but it happens that what I made last week hails from various parts of Asia.
West Malaysia: From Sarawak, the land of the Ibans, I made a Steamed Sarawak Kaya Cake. I received two different recipes for this cake. Though they have different ingredients, the name is similar. So to avoid confusion, scribbled SSKC-Version I and SSKC-Version II on the recipes for ease of differentiating them. I shall not go into details of the ingredients of the two versions for the time being until I have experimented with both recipes.
This is SSKC-Version I . A very soft, moist and fragrant cake that is redolent with the richness of kaya.
East Malaysia: This savory layered steamed cake, which I have made many times, is made by layering cream crackers with a spicy mix of luncheon meat and large onions. What prompted me to make this Oriental Lasagne again is that the cans of luncheon meat had started to make its appearance on the supermarket shelves again after vanishing almost overnight due to a food recall by the health ministy. My rationale is that if it the supermarket is allowed to sell them again, then they must have been given the all clear signal.
Indonesia: Chendol Avocado Smoothie with avocadoes purchased from Batam. They were really cheap! 5 big fruits for approximately S$2.00. The smoothie was layered with chendol strips and sweetened red beans and topped with palm sugar syrup.
Philippines: I first tasted Polvoron more than ten fifteen years ago when a business associate brought us some during one of his visits. I am not sure if I should classify this as a cookie or a sweet. Anyway, when Elaine, my colleague returned to the Philippines for a holiday, I grabbed the chance to ask her help me buy the Polvoron plunger. Here is my Peanut Butter Oreo Polvoron.

Oh yes, Polvoron!
Those that crumble and melt in the mouth type, really yummy especially the cookies and cream ones.
My maid makes good polvoron, I think her family members sell these in their hometown.

Hi, I have being highly intrigued with the ongoing posting of this cake with its elusive recipe on the net, so much so that I asked a colleague to buy the gula hitam browning from Kuching for on her balik kampung trip recently. Big problem is now that I have the essential ingredient, I haven't got the recipe. So could you please give me the recipe for SSKC-1 if it is not too much trouble. Thank you. My email is leon9@gmail.com
Hi Meiwan
The recipe is no longer elusive as they are now available from different recipe books. Please resend your email address as I encountered a failure notice.

This is what I was waiting for because I was looking for something different to prepare because I'm so sick cooking the same all time.
I love Polvoron! I've never had a Peanut Butter Oreo Polvoron though, just the regular kind. I would love to give it a try! I hope you wouldn't mind sharing your recipe with me. My email is Melanie4kps@yahoo.com.
