Kuih Talam

This local dessert is a memory of my school days,taught in cookery lesson.It look similar to Kueh Salat because of the colour.Both have white and green layers.

Thinking back now,I only had a vague memory of how we made Kuih Talam.Sadly to say,I've lost the recipe, but I found one similar to it.The batter don't have to cook first.It is what I wanted.
