粟米糕 (Jagung Kuih)


这个粟米糕点我记得是我新加坡的小姑最会做的。以前小时候,跟婆婆住在一起,小姑常会做这个糕点。有什么Party她就是出这一道。哈哈!她当然因该还有拿手别的,但是,在我记忆里粟米糕因该是她的trademark啦。因为曾经有问过她的食谱,你们是知道的啦,以前的人做糕没有秤好好来的,很会agakagak。所以她的食谱是永远都没办法学会的。印象是好像粟米一罐,然后用粟米的罐子来量其他的食材,又一罐椰浆一罐半水。。什么嘛,这样那里记得。我想,经过这么多年,再去问她,她也未必能给我答案。她现在已经是几间化妆品店的老板娘,问她那里一罐化妆品好用可能还可以找到答案!呵呵!在这里回忆一下和小姑一起长大的日子,于是今天上了这道小姑粟米糕(Jagung Kuih)。
