I like muar chee since i was young. The sticky glutinous chewy feeling with ground peanuts and sesame, yummy. I used to buy this desert whenever there was chinese opera near my house.
Feel like having muar chee for desert today. Sly always think that tapioca is very erotic and weird food, just like seaweed salad in japanese food. After he tried the muar chee that i have made, he said, this desert is actually pretty good :)
Here's the recipe, taken from RasaMalaysia.com
Ingredients (serving for 2)
4 oz glutinous rice flour
1 tbs tapioca flour
3/4 cup water
1 tsp oil for greasing
Fried shallot crisps
Roasted peanuts mixture
2 oz ground roasted peanuts
2 oz granulated sugar (to taste)
1 oz sesame seeds (lighly toasted)
Method:
Mix the glutinous rice flour and tapioca flour with water, then transfer the batter into a grease pan. Steamed over high heat for about 20 mins until the paste is completely cook through the centre. Then let it cool.
Mix the roasted peanut, sugar and sesame seeds in a big bowl. Cut small piece of the paste with plastic knife (clean cut with plastic knife) and then drop it into the mixture. The mixture is very sticky thus drop them one by one and coat well.
I personally don't like the fried shallots crisp, thus i didn't serve them on top of the dish.
