Steam-Fried Pumpkin Kueh - 水煎南瓜饼
Have you ever try the steam-fried method? This is my first attempt, and it is truly a good experience. The texture is soft, the pumpkin and the red bean paste mixture make it sweet yet savory, together with the sprinkled sesame seeds, it is indeed flavorsome! The water vapor while steaming, after pan frying makes the taste more pleasing. I do not know how to express, you should try it out personally to enjoy the real oomph!
... Enjoy!
