Slowly stir the batter to release trap air and is ready to pour into moulds for steaming .
Pour the batter 100% full into the mould and set aside to rest. Steamed for 25-30 minutes. By the way reduce from 8 to 5 mould is the correct way ..too many steaming at one time makes the Huat Kuih unable to laugh in my case.
Reason and possiblities why Huat Kuih failed.
- Batter must be proof ensure they double up
- Ensure steamer water is boiling hot before steaming.
- Do not open the steamer for at least 25 minute, otherwise the batter may sink and it may not be success if you close and continue to re-steamed ..unless as and and when you open the lid they are already 80% blooming which we cannot see unless the lid is transparent ..do take note on this.
- Do not steamed too many Huat kuih mould at one time. 5 would just be nice.
- This is to ensure balances high steamer heat sustained and are there to boost a sucess laughing instead of just smilling Huat Kuih.
Making huat kuih seems so easy yet they are not for beginners.
- Every steamer works differently and you got to learn to understand your steamer cos aluminium steamer are thicker ply and some are not .
- Well practice makes perfect --GOOD LUCK
