I used to eat this as a kid. I'd seperate and nibble on each colour once by one. Now as a mum, I made this for my 3 year old who was fascinated to pull the colours apart and eat each strip separately. Great snack!

[@roshanjayabalan7615]

Hi.I am a house wife.In free times see videos about FOOD and how to make kuih all.When i started deeing ur videos i am be ur fan.Futhermore ur tips are very simple.....tq

[@LemLTay]

It brings back childhood memories of "kow ting kueh" (nine-layer cake) from the market, and as children, we'd peel off and eat each layer one at a time. Then our elders would admonish us and tell us to eat it properly - but where's the fun in that! PS: I didn't mind one bit the rounded corners of the mould - those pieces are strictly "the cook's privilege" to sample first!!

[@michaellim]

Hahaha, I used to do that when i was young, eating a layer at a time. 😊

[@antoniuswibowo4030]

Kow ting kueh sounds Hokian (Southern part of China)

[@zhangruyi3153]

In Teochew, we call this steamed cake gao dêng guê 九重餜 I remember eating this cake as a child and I also peeled the cake and ate it layer by layer. I should make such a cake for a good laugh travelling down memory lane. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. God bless!

Hi, Mr. Michael Lim One of my favourite is kueh lapis and when I peel each layer my memory goes back to my younger days in the 50s where I was staying at Kg Lama Road Railway Quarters, Singapore where I used to buy this kueh from an old Nonya lady for 5 cents at nearby Nelson Road market.I wholeheartedly thank you for painstakingly showing your recipe step by step.I would try making this kueh for my children who also enjoy eating it.Thanks Ratha Krishnan Singapore 🇸🇬

Thks Michael. Have been looking for Kueh Lapis authentic recipe. thks for your great video. Hope it comes out as good as yours. Yours look exactly like the ones we used to buy in Singapore. Even the oily look and most of all when you separated the slices. Made me think of my daughter who just adores it and used to separate hers like you doing at the end to eat her kueh. I will add to this comments after i make it and let you know how it turned out. Hello from Canada. Yoiur video is crisp, to the point, and so clean. the whole video was so relaxing to watch. I am hoping mine turns out atleast half decent. will update my msg after i make it. thks for your meticulous video

Hi.. May I know what size of container used? Can i use baking tin instead?

[@sayang3074]

Absolutely, it would be helpful to know the size of your container because I would like to try it too. All my my round pans are either 9 or 11 inches....please!!!!

[@fanniel6449]

Looking at the amount if liquid used in his recipe, I would say it will fit any 15x15square or 16round one nicely. If you use baking tin, make sure to grease it with a thin layer of neutral vegetable oil (like soy/palm cooking oik), I'd say if you use coconut oil to grease your baking tin, it will complement the entire kuih lapis taste. Just make sure not to overgrease it. And allow the steam to dissipate a little before adding the next layer, this way your layers will stick really well. I really love this recipe. Like all traditional Asian Nyonya Kuih, the ingredients are so simple and only a handful, but techniques used for every single one is totally different that same humble rice flour will make into this kuih lapis, kuih talam, kuih salat, kuih cucur goreng, bubur sumsum, cendol, etc. Truly the wisdom of our elders should be preserved!

[@3pumpkins170]

His container is probably about 4 inches x 6 inches. I made it with a 9"x9" baking pan. I needed to double the recipe.
