Ingredients for the filling
brown sugar 150g
desiccated coconut 200-250g (i used dried ones cos I can't get fresh ones here)
water 200-250ml( use less if your using fresh coconut)
pinch of salt
Method
mix all the above in a pot over a medium heat till the sugar has melted. don't forget to keep mixing the mixture to avoid burning at the bottom. then set a side to cool.
Ingredients
plain flour 250g
coconut milk 750ml
5 pandan leaves
Method
blend the pandan leaves in a blender to get the juices. then mix the pandan juice with the flour and the coconut milk in a bowl. the batter will be a runny consistancy like a crepe batter. mix well to get all the lumps out and strain the batter.
Heat a pan and pour a thin layer of batter. (this batter/pancake is very delicate) Wait for one side to crisp up but not brown then flip it over for 3-4 sec just to make sure its cooked thru and set a side.
then continue to cook till all the batter is all finished.
now once that is done lay the crepe as per the picture above and put roughly a table spoon of the filling per crepe. fold the sides in and roll it up.
And there you have your first kuih dadar.
the finish product should look like this :
its up to you how much filling you like to put in the kuih.
Happy trying!!
