Kuih Kapit

220 gm caster sugar 130 gm rice flour 1 tsp tapioca flour 4 large eggs 250ml thick coconut milk Method I’m making 4 portions so you can times number of portions you wanna make. Crack eggs into a large bowl (Whisk till combine) Put in caster sugar (Whisk till combine) Sieve in rice flour, tapioca flour and lastly coconut milk (Whisk everything till combine) Sieve your batter to filter out all the lumps. Prepare your kuih kapit clipper (make sure your clipper is hot) then pour batter onto clipper and start to burn! Good Luck! This time i’m not going to sit on the floor, i’m placing it on top of folding table, more comfortable and i’m standing and not tired! Tips: To remove sides of the unwanted batter, you can use a new scrub. It’s faster and easier Tips: Do not need to smear oil each time, only first time is needed onto the clipper Tips: Keep batter in the fridge (below) not freezer if you cannot finish on the day and continue tomorrow http://chefwo.com/kuih-kapit-recipe/ http://www.singaporelocalfavourites.com/2011/01/easy-love-letters-kuih-kapit-recipe.html http://www.myresipi.com/top/detail/19429
