This smiling steamed cake 'Huat Kuih' recipe is a slightly modified version of Aunty Young's recipe. I used fresh orange juice instead of water and orange paste.
The preparation is easy with just a few ingredients and this is without eggs. I am very happy with the results especially when I saw the cake smiling so beautifully when I uncover the steamer. So lovely. The huat kuih is moist and fluffy when warm, so it is advisable to serve them right after steaming or warm if you like fluffy, moist steamed cakes.
Chinese All Souls Day is coming soon, so these Huat Kuihs will be good for 'Pai Pai' if you can offering prayers to your ancestors.
