Chinese New Year Kueh (aka Nian Gao)

I was doing housekeeping at home and found two pieces of this CNY must-have kueh. Not wanted to waste it (last year still in my fridge :p), I used some coconut to turn it into a nice dessert dish! Hubby loves it and pesters me to make more! hehe!

Ingredient:

- 1 piece Nian Gao (refer picture far below)
- 1 packet of coconut (not the coconut milk hor, can get it from major supermarkets, I got mine from ShopnSave)
- 2 teaspoons of salt

How to do it:

- Steam the Nian Gao in the wok together with the water for about 15-20mins (Notice that I didnt say "boil the water first". I 'boiled' it with the water)
- Once the Nian Gao turned soft, off the fire.
- Pour out the coconut on a plate, add in the salt and mixed.
- Used spoon to scoop a spoonful of the Nian Gao and roll over the coconut.


This is Nian Gao, one of CNY must-have goodies!
