Onde-Onde | Pandan-Flavored Glutinous Rice Balls with Palm Sugar | Buah Melaka [Nyonya Cooking]

🤤 RECIPE: www.nyonyacooking.com/recipes...
Onde-Onde uses glutinous rice flour, screw pine (pandan) leaves, palm sugar and is coated with shredded coconut. Made out of a combination of two types of flour, it has a chewy texture.
There are many varieties of [delicious kuih](/recipes/desserts) in Malaysia. One that remains my favourite is Onde-Onde. I have loved it since my childhood days.
As you bite into an Onde-Onde, the melted palm sugar flows out. I likened them to sweet little bombs as the sweetness explodes in the mouth. The shredded coconut further enhances the deliciousness of this kuih.
Use freshly grated coconut if you can get hold of it. Frozen shredded coconut can be found at some Asian grocers. You can freeze the Onde-Onde after making them. Just boil them whenever you feel like having them. As for the palm sugar, do scout for those which are darker as they are more fragrant.
Sometimes, the dough may crack during the cooking process. This is due to the thinness of the dough. However, remember not to make the dough too thick either. Wrap it closely around the palm sugar. Do not be discouraged if initially, it does not turn out the way you expected. Remember, practice makes perfect!

Kuih ini ada tiga nama, iaitu ondeh-ondeh da buah Melaka. Tetapi orang tua-tua di Alor Gajah, Melaka dan Negeri Sembilan panggil kuih kelepong. Orang Jawa panggil klopen (kalau tak silap bunyinya).

[@reenaelango12]

Hi I love ur cooking

[@ginamadronero3467]

I like the way u explain and demonstrate how u cook bcz its very clear and so easy to understand ...one thing more i like ur dimple ur so cute wth it...im a filipina i worked in Kuala Lumpur before

[@nyonyacooking]

Welcome! Good luck!

[@celestyap3860]

[@nyonyacooking]

Oh dear. That is far. I guess, you can only enjoy the whole process. All the best! I can't wait to hear about your little trip and experience making your onde onde!

[@nakeswaranmike9261]

[@fiovious84]

Very simple recipe TQ

[@joshuag819]

I just taste this at church,and this is my favorite!But unfortunately my mum doesn't know how to do it,so I have to search the video my own to make the sweet potato ondeh-ondeh

[@nyonyacooking]

That is true. I usually shave it using a knife (be very careful) or even hit it with a pestle. Brutal stuff, I know. Haha. You can also try the palm sugar which is sold in a plastic tub. I find that soft as you can still scoop it out with a spoon, with effort of course. Good luck!

[@julekaismail8316]

Hi ,,, Thanks is video

[@XxStarsatHeartxX]

I'll be sure to send you a message about it, then! I am so excited and now I can walk in actually knowing a few things lol.

[@Josephontheball]

I'm living in London now and really miss kuehs, especially ondeh ondeh. Watching your video, it seems that it isn't difficult to make at all, thanks! Soon, I'll definitely satisfy this craving I've been having for months.

[@nyonyacooking]

I know what you mean, I feel you :P Yea, give it a try. Just show me a pict okay!

[@XxStarsatHeartxX]

The only thing like that that I know of in my state is an Asian market that's nearly an hour away and I'd have to make a day of it, but no worries. I was already planning a trip for that market soon that also included lunch at an authentic ramen shop. I will write these down as 'must look for' lol. Thanks! Can't wait to try it.

[@nyonyacooking]

Please do....and tell me what you think! :D

[@nyonyacooking]

Thanks :D I do not have the mooncake mold at the moment but will keep this request in my request list :)

[@nyonyacooking]

Try the asian store near your area. As for the desiccated coconut, I got it at the baking section of my neighbourhood supermarket. Good luck!

[@288JILL]

Thanks for sharing so many interesting Malaysia recipes. Melaca and Penang food really fantastic! I am going to cook Rendang Chicken for this week! (JILL from Ipoh, currently stay outside Malaysia) Miss all our Malaysia Food!

[@kogyinilai3192]

Hi adik, Terimakasih banyak2. Saya akan cuba.

[@nyonyacooking]

Kogyi Nilai Bila dah cuba, jgn lupa hantar gambar :)

[@nyonyacooking]

Oh dear. Next time you can start with 30 ml of water and add bit by bit. Once it starts to be a dough, but still dry....you can add teaspoons of water. That was it wouldnt be too soft or crumbly :) Hopefully you will be successful with it and do tell me :D

[@ivylew2005]

Can I use tapioca starch instead of tapioca flour? It's hard to find tapioca flour..thx

[@XxStarsatHeartxX]

I'll have to find a store that carries some of those specific items so that I can try them. They look delicious.

[@ohdarah]

great vid! Will be making this tonight :D

[@nyonyacooking]

Woo-hoo! I can't wait to see the outcome!

[@mirumuji4843]

[@nyonyacooking]

jane lopez Welcome! :)

[@selvashanthambaskaran5627]

Hai tqvm for the recipe...kindly explain the difference between gula melaka n palm sugar...as u mentioned in the recipe..have a great day

[@Ezekielkok]

I had a great challenge making this. I don't have a weighing scale so I converted it into cups. I didn't have pandan extract so I used essence n 60mls of water. First it was too soft n fluid like so I added more flour then it became too crumbly lol. In the end the balls were too soft. But I made a few to eat at home. Hope to try again soon

[@altheanatasha98]

Trying this tomorrow w my girls. 😀😀

[@nyonyacooking]

Good luck!!

[@syazwaniM]

My boyfriend love this kuih! I need to learn to make it. hehe Thanks!

[@Totorochilbe12]

I'm very happy, Grace. I am have been looking for something small for dessert at this football final lunch I am hosting this weekend and now I have found it! Onde Onde it is!

[@nyonyacooking]

Totorochilbe12 And....did the boys enjoy it??

[@Totorochilbe12]

Nyonya Cooking (Malaysian Recipes) Yes, they certainly did! It went very nicely with vietnamese pork rolls and beer! One guys wife wanted the recipe so I think she subscribed to your channel :)

[@nyonyacooking]

Awww...thanks for spreading the word :D

[@nyonyacooking]

Don't need to dilute if you are using pandan leaf essence (from supermarket) The pandan leaf essence is usually very concentrated. And you have to see what kind of pandan leave essence are you using, with or without colour. If your pandan leaf essence is translucent, just add a few drops of food colouring.

[@jimw8615]

You look pretty.

[@wilsontan2671]

oh! okay! thank you!

[@MrQuagmire26]

With palm sugar cubes I found this neat little trick. Put them in the microwave for maybe 5 secs or so (play around a bit as each microwave is different). The cubes should not melt, by putting them a few sec in micro they will soften up and be more easy to break down.

[@nyonyacooking]

If you watch my kaya video, you will see how I extracted the pandan leave juice. There was a bit of water added but I would say that it's 90% pure pandan extract. From the supermarket, I think you can only get the flavouring. Just a few drops of that will do :)

[@toshiharukobayashi6467]

more palm sugar !!!😁😎

[@wienroosie3567]

Indonesia name is klepon, I like your language thank for upload

[@vallimogan6388]

Hi. All your recipes are awesome i jus wan to know some of the ondeh ondeh they didn't add tapioca flour but in your recipe you add may i know will the ondeh ondeh stay firm or flatten slightly after cooked and what is da purpose to add tapioca flourpls advise thank you

[@JYSTZU]

Hi grace, can I use corn flour as a substitute for Tapioca flour?

[@nyonyacooking]

Just follow the recipe, so...60ml of water and few drops of pandan essence. Try to make it into a dough and then add 1-2 drop(s) of green food colouring. If you find the dough is still slightly soft, add a bit of glutinous rice flour to the dough.

[@mehrajameen9803]

super

[@suhuang1538]

heylo babe, have tried your recipe as i have been craving for onde onde for a long long time and so glad you have the recipe. it taste fantastic!

[@wilsontan2671]

hi excuse me, how do you get/make the pandan leaf extract?

[@songwaikit8718]

For the pandan leaf extract we can buy it from the supermarket right? 60ml seems like a lot. do u dilute it to get that amount or is it pure extract?

[@mulberry_SKY]

I am so many years late but I am making this tomorrow for Aidilfitri though I am not the one celebrating but we can't go kesana kesini for visiting, so yeah ;P Thanks for the recipe!

[@nyonyacooking]

Ohh...chili pan mee? or soup? :)

[@radinsyah1574]

Great video work. I'd suggest maybe being more specific in how big are those mini balls, how much malacca sugar to put in each, and how many balls this recipe makes. Btw, can I substitute tapioca flour with more gluttonous rice flour?

[@mindyong5553]

May I ask you is there any different in Tapioca starch and Tapioca flour?

[@RoystonLim]

Do you have to steam freshly grated coconut as well?
