Homemade Chee Cheong Fun

Since I have already had roti the other day for breakfast.... and I am not forgetting this chee cheong fun too! Another yummy street food of Malaysia. As long as I know, nowadays it's not easy to find those old fashion kind of chee cheong fun which is flat, thick & firm. I think you can only find those at the Northern part of Malaysia but not the south. Guess what hubby said this round? He actually asking for a dish of chee cheong fun from me! hehe....

Ingredients : (2-3 servings)

560ml water

1/2 tspn salt

1 tbsp cooking oil

110gm rice flour

1-1/2 tbsp corn flour/tapioca flour

1-1/2 tbsp wheat starch

*Prepared 2 pcs cheese clothes, some dried shrimp & some sliced spring onion.

Method :

- preheat steamer.

- combine all ingredients and mix well, leave aside.
- place in a 10" tray to the steamer and line in a damp cheese cloth.


Next, pour in 2-3 ladle of the batter and sprinkle on some dried shrimp & spring onion.

Then cover and steam over moderate heat for 5 mins. Remove cheese cloth with the chee cheong fun from the tray and replace it with another clean & damp cheese cloth. Again, pour in the batter and steam.

Remember to place the chee cheong fun facing down onto the table then slowly pull the cloth away, or you may need a scrapper here to help. Finally, fold up the chee cheong fun and set aside to cool. Wash the cheese cloth.

This is the kind of chee cheong fun just the way I wanted, thick and silky smooth.

I'm serving this with a teaspoon of fried garlic & onion oil, a teaspoon of light soy sauce and a tablespoon of Chinese red sweet sauce. Yet it is still delicious without the sweet sauce. I'm out of toasted sesame seeds, so just go without it. Yumm..... I still prefer to have my chee cheong fun with some curry sauce. Well, this is good enough though, better than nothing. haha....

So, join me for breakfast anyone?
