It's a relaxing evening, yesterday, 11th June;  but the leftover pumpkin in my fridge keeps lingering in my head; and have been thinking of what to make with it.  Then, I browse through YouTube, something of interest strike me in an instant - Pumpkin Huat Kuih!  Wow!!! Ta..da....


Yields: 6 (7.5-cm baking cup)
Ingredients: 
100 g. pumpkin flesh
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp. water
100 g. granulated sugar
1 pc. pandan leaf (knoted)
250 g. plain flour (sifted)
1 tbsp. + 1 tsp. baking powder (sifted)
4 tbsp. olive oil

Methods:

  1. Steam pumpkin flesh until softened.  Mashed and set aside.
  2. Combine water, sugar and pandan leaf in a pot, cook until sugar dissolves.
  3. Add sugar syrup to mashed pumpkin, mix until combined and set aside to cool.
  4. Bring the water of steamer to the boil.
  5. Add the sifted flour and baking powder into the cooled pumpkin mixture, and mix until blended.
  6. Add in olive oil and mix until combined.
