Damian D’Silva’s Kueh Bingka Ubi Recipe: Uber Ubi!

Damian's recipe is quite unlike anything else I have seen online on in recipe books The one thing that really stood out was the caramelisation of the sugar syrup which added that extra dimension of flavour to the kueh. I also liked the thick layer of browned crust on the top of the kueh which develops through a longer 2 stage baking process.

Leslie’s Kueh Salat Recipe: Silky Restaurant Quality Kueh

First, I need to define what I envision the perfect kueh salat to be. I find a lot of commercial kueh salat to be too heavy. The rice layer is thick and gummy and the kaya layer too firm. What I think a perfect kueh salat to be is to have a sublime kaya layer which is light and silky smooth like a pannacotta and a rice layer where the rice grains are still distinct and not so tightly packed so that when you bite into it, the kaya and rice will easily mix together.

Tea Smoked Chicken: So Simple, So Shiok

The best recipes are those that are simple yet satisfying. There should be a phrase that captures this idea in a more sexy way. Something like "Bang for the Buck" except that it refers to recipes that are relatively simple to do and yet gets oohs and ahhhs all around the table. Perhaps I should call such recipes "So Simple, So Shiok" recipes. So far that is what I can come up with. If you can think of an even sexier phrase, please let me know.
