kuih batik
i have never done this "kuih batik" thing before. i have never heard of it before i come here. but this thing has become like so popular since last hari raya when they make open house.
since then kuih batik becomes a must in any celebration : birthday, cny etc or just making it for fun. the recipe is spread verbally from one to another. and now, i think almost everyone in the hostel knows how to make it.
here’s the recipe.
ingredients :
1 piece of butter (300g)
1 cup of milo powder ( or nesquick)
1 tin of condensed milk.
300g of plain biscuit (eg Jacob’s)
Methodolology:
1) crush the biscuits into small pieces
2) melt the butter on the pan
3) put the milo powder and the whole tin of condensed milk
4) stir well
5) put the crushed biscuits into the pot of hot chocolate
6) stir again
7) pour everything into a container
press the surface with a flat thing…so that it’s flat too…
9) put in the fridge for cooling untill it becomes solid
the thing you are making is officially called a kuih batik now…( i dunno why….it doesn’t resemble kain batik in anyway to me…..)
click here to see the pictures….
as you can see the whole ingredient and process is nothing but carbo and FAT….
it’s not suitable for me as i am already FAT!
i am extremely busy. i have exam coming. i do not like cakes. i hate desserts.
so why am i doing this??
i just wanna CRUSH the biscuits….
(anyone who reads this post within 24 hours can come claim one "kuih batik" from me, while stock last. of course, you must stay in nizhny novgorod,russia, hostel 3…(or 1) )
