Ingredients
1large egg(about 60g/2.1 oz weight, including shell)
70gwhite sugar
80mlcoconut milk
120grice flour
1pinchsalt
500mlvegetable oilyou need enough for the oil to come up about 5cm/2 inches high. This will depend on how wide your wok or saucepan is.
Instructions
Whisk the egg and sugar for 30 sec, with a manual whisk or fork.
1 large egg, 70 g white sugar
Add the coconut milk and whisk lightly to mix.
80 ml coconut milk
Tip in the flour and salt and lightly whisk in to mix well. Leave to rest for 10 minutes. There is no need to strain your batter. Any tiny lump will fall apart in those 10 minutes. Stir before using.
120 g rice flour, 1 pinch salt
Heat your oil on medium heat until hot. To know if your oil is hot enough, just dip in any wooden utensil (spatula, chopstick). If tiny bubbles appear, it's hot enough.Place your kuih rose mould in the hot oil for 10 seconds to heat up.
500 ml vegetable oil
Give it a good shake to get rid of excess oil, then dip your mould into the batter to cover the sides of the mould but leaving the top batter free.
Transfer your batter covered mould into the hot oil, fully submerging it. Hold for 10 seconds, then give a gentle shake to dislodge the kuih ros.Repeat with a second cookie.
By the time you've dislodged the second one, the first cookie will be done. Scoop it out with a flat spatula and place it on a plate lined with kitchen paper.Repeat until all the batter is done. Cool the cookies completely, then store in an airtight container. Will keep for 3 weeks, but best in the first 2.
