Nostalgic Snacks: Old School Tapioca Kueh

Old School Tapioca Kueh 

My grandma grew her own tapioca on her small farm. Every now and then, she would dig out some tapioca to make yummy treats for her grandchildren.

She would come up with many ways to cook the tapioca. We had boiled tapioca with shredded coconut and gula melaka. Sometimes, she would grate the tapioca to steam a tapioca cake. Then she cut the tapioca kueh into pieces and roll them in shredded coconut. Viola! It is another tasty snack.

Pan-fried Tapioca Kueh

Whenever there was leftover tapioca cake, she would cut them into squares and pan-fried them into crispy, golden brown snacks.

Missing my childhood days in a kampung. Glad that I could find tapioca even though I live in a bustling city. Cook this old school tapioca kueh for my family 😋😋

小时候的味道：古早味木薯糕

蒸木薯糕

童年时，跟阿嫲住在乡下。阿嫲自己种木薯，她时不时就会挖木薯来制做可口的糕点给孙子们吃。

木薯蒸一蒸，加椰丝或椰糖都好吃。把木薯磨成茸状，蒸个木薯糕，切片再沾椰丝，更加美味可口。

煎木薯糕

吃剩的蒸木薯糕，隔天再拿来煎一煎，又是另一种口味。

住在繁华城市里的我，这天给家人做这道简单又可口的古早味木薯糕 😋
