Rainbow Kuih Lapis

Photobucket

"Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high. There's a land that I dream of once in a lullabye". Each time I look at a Kueh Lapis, I would be reminded of this song from the Wizards of Oz. This is such a lovely traditional cake, made out of a mixture of rice flour/tapioca starch mixed into coconut milk and steamed one layer at a time. To be considered successful, you must be able to tear out the individual layers. If they stick to each other, then you will know immediately that the cake is a failure. I am really happy with how my Rainbow Kueh Lapis turned out and everyone whom I shared the cake with gave it a thumbs up for its nice springy texture. Nine layers of vibrant colorful sweet cake Photobucket Passed with Flying Colors Photobucket

Hi there,

Do you share your recipes? I am particularly interested in the strawberry bar recipe. http://mycookingescapades.blogspot.com/2009/06/berry-nice-strawberry-bars.html

Thanks,
Kay

Hi there! I'm actually in the process of making this dish right now. :) Unfortunately, this is my second time making it and it's turning out as unsuccessfully as the first. Can you share some tips on your cooking process?

The recipe I'm using asks me to put the mixture in a steamer. I did so and the layers became somewhat firm, but were gooey on top (no matter how often I wipe the pot cover) and never became translucent except for just around the edges, as I know rice flour usually does when cooked. Also, I steamed the progressive layers longer and longer, but they're still gooey and uncooked. I'm determined to get this right eventually, and some tips from you to get such beautiful, evenly cooked layer would be very helpful. Thanks!
