Kuih Dodol From Scratch

It's been a busy & exhausting weekend. I traveled back to hubby's home to celebrate Mother's Day with his family. Hubby is the youngest in his family and 8 other elder siblings were back too with their kids & grandkids. Oh yeah, just imagine the situation. It was sounded like a wet market. hahaha....  How about the kitchen....the preparation of food for the whole family ? No problem......everyone still ended with a happy & smiling face.

OH now.....did I just mention DODOL earlier ??? And why it doesn't even look like one at all ? haha..... This is not a real dodol but just a kuih tastes like dodol which I made from scratch. The real dodol is a traditional Malay sweet delicacy and it is widely produced especially during RAYA celebration. Dodol is made of coconut milk, palm sugar and rice flour. And it needs to be cook for long hours till everything thickened to became an elastic sticky paste. Herewith, I have enclosed a video clip that you might interested in.(Click here to watch the traditional way of Dodol making).

And here's the recipe from scratch.
Ingredients :
(A)
180gm   tapioca flour
50gm   sago flour
340ml   coconut milk
1/4 tspn  salt

(B)
100ml    water
100gm   sugar

(C)
100ml  water
120gm   palm sugar

Method :
(1) combine ingredients (A), mix well and set aside.
(2) cook ingredients (B) & (C) separately till sugar dissolved.
(3) now, divide ingredients (A) into two portions, stir ingredient (B) into one portion and then ingredient (C) to the other half.
(4) finally, steam the first few layers for about 3 minutes each and then the final layer for about 7 minutes.
(5) once it's done, leave to cool completely before keeping it refrigerated. It's best to serve chilled.


If you're craving for some dodol and don't want to go through such long hours cooking method, then this recipe should sounds good to you. It smells great and tastes exactly like dodol.
