Ingredients
For Bottom Layer:
- 300 g glutinous rice soak for 30 minutes in water
- 200 ml thin coconut milk 100 ml coconut milk plus 100 ml water
- 2 Pandan leaves optional
- 1 teaspoon salt
For Top Layer:
- 200 ml thick coconut milk or coconut cream
- 2 large eggs plus 2 egg yolks
- 170 g sugar
- 100 ml Pandan Juice from 8-10 pandan leaves
- 5 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients for the bottom layer and steam on high heat for 20 minutes.
- In the meantime, prepare the top layer by mixing the eggs, coconut milk, sugar, pandan juice, and flour together. Stir until smooth. Cook over boiling water using the double boiler method until the mixture thickens slightly but remains runny enough to pour.
- After 20 minutes, take out the glutinous rice mixture, stir it, and flatten it with a spoon or your hands to ensure it is compact. Use a sieve to pour the egg mixture over the rice mixture.
- Steam on medium heat for 30 minutes. Let cool before cutting the Seri Muka into diamond-shaped or rectangular pieces
