Onde Onde recipe

Suz has been taking a few traditional kuihs for my little shop (yet to be opened).  Onde Onde is one of the kuih which will be available from the shop.  These pictures are only a test run and there will be a lot of food testing in my kitchen for the next few weeks.

I always remember eating these when I was little and Mom always warned me not to eat with an open mouth.  The gula melaka or palm sugar would squirt out.   Don’t you get reminded of it?!  The fragrance from both the pandan leaves extract and gula melaka make the best combination to its recipe.  Hope you’ll try it.

Here is a traditional Nyonya kuih, Onde Onde recipe after the cut.
