KANOM KROK ( THAI COCONUT PUDDING )

This pudding is similar to our paal appam.
The only difference is they add different types of fillings.

Ingredients: bottom layer
1 cup rice flor
2 cups water
1/3 cup cooked rice
½ cup grated coconut
½ tsp salt.

Method:
In a blender , mix all the ingredients and blend until smooth.
Remove and let it ferment for about 3 hours.

For topping:
1 cup coconut thick cream
½ cup sugar
Little salt.
Mix every thing till the sugar is dissolved.
(you can add one of the fillings of your choice now)

Fillings :Optional, can use anyone of your choice.
1 scallion cut into small rounds
Boiled pumpkins, boiled taro
Chopped cliantro
Cream of corn

Method:
Heat the Kanom krok pan over medium heat, brush with oil.
Using a spoon add the bottom layer mixture into each hole.
To fill about 2/3 full. Wait for a moment, then pour about tsp
Of the topping mixture into each hole to fill it up.
Cover the pan with a lid and cook till it turns slightly brown,
And crisp around the edge.
Remove each cake and serve warm.
Usually the cakes are served as two, one placed on the top of the other.
Kanom kroh is especially delicious when hot with soft creamy centre
And extra crispy edges.

hello suvai,

Thanks for ur compliments, really kugan's receipes are too good, also all the receipes are new to me. But i cannot make her receipes at home, coz of our diet schedule i cannot try it. May when i invite guests, that time surely i will do. Pictures are making my mouth watery. Really she is taking too much effort.
Now the thread is becoming very interesting.
Surely, suvai i will share my receipes whenever i get time. i will send sambar, cauliflower&potato poriyal at the earliest.
take care
selvi

Suvai thanks for the compliments.
Please try the banana drops.
For appam we use rice flour.
This is all purpose flour.
You reciepe for the sweet potato has come.
My friend, she is a very busy business woman.
Infact we are her clients .
Its very sweet of her to post the recipes
inspite of her heavy schedule.
Kugan

Selviem thanks for your compliments.
I feel very proud that you take so much trouble
to cook healthy food for your family.
Mine is a joint family, have to cater for each's need.

Selviem i know posting recipes is not an easy job.
Have to take care of the family, at the same time
have to find time to come to the net.

When ever you find the time, please post your healthy soups
and salads. Also your way of making healthy gravies.
I am sure many will benefit from that.

Take care Selviem.
Kugan
