UPDATE KUEH CARA RECIPE: 

After trying many other mini sponge cake recipes, I found that I like the below recipe the most. It is much softer and spongy. Although it is not really the Sarawak version, they are all equally the same. Perhaps each recipe lies in a person's hand skills. When it is done right, you'll yield a better

result. Cheers!

INGREDIENTS;

100G all purpose flour

50G tapioca flour

180G sugar

120G coconut milk

80G Pandan Juice(10 screwpine leaves)

1/2 tsp Sait

2 Eggs

dash of apple green colouring(optional)

METHOD;

Provided your blender is big enough to fit in,you can pour everything in the blender to blend,but first you must prepare some pandan juice first.

Cut the pandan leaves small.Blend with some water in the blender,Strain 80g of juice out.Then after obtaining the pandan juice,you can now blend all the ingredients in the blender.You can also mix all the ingredients in a bowl.

Remember to oil the mould with a brush before putting in the batter.Pour 3/4 full.Cover the top and check to see whether it is done and take out with a toothpick.

NOTE; I do not wish to confuse you with so many recipes,but you can pick any one of the recipes and try yourself out.Maybe your skill are better than mine?
