木薯椰丝煎堆 Fried Tapioca Balls with Grated Coconut


Apart from using sweet potatoes in cooking, tapioca is another popular tuberous root starch widely adopted here in Indonesia whereby its versatility makes it very suitable in making traditional kuehs and snacks.  
红薯和地瓜除了用在多种用途于烹饪上,木薯也是一项在印尼及受欢迎的塊莖淀粉,特别是它的多功能性质而非常适合用于制做传统糕粿及小吃。



When my ex maid visited us 2 weeks ago she gave us some tapioca freshly plucked from her neighbor's backyard, during then we were too engrossed in cooking something else that we forgotten about the tapioca until this morning. Luckily, we managed to save the neglected tapioca from ruin by trying this SUPER yummy recipe from Andrew Low's 'Malaysian Kuehs and Snacks'. 
两个星期我的前度女庸到访,从她家的邻居那里踩了一批新鲜的木薯送给我们,当时因为忙于制做其他的食品而忘了那批木薯。幸好在木薯还没发臭时及时被发现,便匆忙取出许孙祥的‘粿香满堂’里的这道食谱来尝试。


Devoid of wheat nor glutinous rice flour, this version of deep fried tapioca balls is completely made with steam mashed tapioca thus giving it a savory crispy outer layer but melting inner texture. When coupled with the aromatic and sweet grated coconut fillings, its truly yummy....
原来这版本全以蒸熟捣烂的木薯及无采用任何糯米粉及澄面粉的木薯煎堆更好吃。炸出来的木薯表皮酥脆而内蓬松溶化入口的口感。再配上那富有椰糖的椰丝内陷,一旦吃了就难以停口,太好吃了!
