Kueh Kapit (Pandan)

It takes a long time to make but it takes little time to eat. These Kueh Kapit is deserving of such a statement. In the olden days, women of the household literally sweat over charcoal burner, making these by hand. Kueh Kapit is a popular snack in Singapore and Malaysia during the festival season. Many regions of Southeast Asia have similar waffle-like biscuits produced with the same technique.

The tiny waffle is comprised mostly of rice flour, giving it a delicate and crunchy texture. Coconut milk, egg, and caramelised sugar have a wonderful aroma and flavour combination that is guaranteed to satisfy.
