Home made kuay tiau




I miss my friend from Marudi who operated a small stall in a corner shop in Miri. She made her own kuay tiau at home and sometimes even in her stall. She said it was not very difficult but she did not get to do a demo. She would use quite a big tin to make her kueh tiau.

So I googled for a recipe and here it is.Image result for homemade kuey teow
By trial and error you can do it.


Ingredients
1 cup rice flour
1/2 cup tapioca flour

1 1/2 cup  cold water
some oil
½ tsp Salt

Method
1. Mix the rice flour, tapioca flour together. Add the water and stir continuously.

2. Add in the oil, salt and mix thoroughly.

3. Set the batter aside for at least an hour.

4. Prepare your steamer

5. When the water is boiling, ladle and spread a thin layer of batter onto the tray. Steam for about 4-5 mins on high.

6. Remove the tray from the steamer and leave to cool slightly  before using a scrapper to fold the kway tiau
While waiting for the kway teow to cool, put in the next tray to steam.

7. Cut into thin strips for fried kway teow. The noodle sheets can be kept in airtight containers in the fridge for a day or 2.
