Malaysian Sweet Potato Donuts (Kuih Keria)
September 05, 2015
Kuih Keria or sweet potato Donuts : Malaysians' favourite sugar fix for breakfast or afternoon tea.
Nearly there... a little bit more to go...
then I am done with tidying up blog to make it look clean-er ...clap clap clap and pat pat pat on my shoulder ;P.
but the last bit requires my undivided attention... with a couple of aspirins too!
I want a brighter coloured social button icons (top right hand corner) and makes them bigger ... and for that... I need to search the net again and that may take a while, as I am not computer savvy :(
So... lets celebrate milestone achieved...
by munching on yet another deep fried finger licking good food :D... called Kuih Keria or sweet potato donuts.
I called them donuts as I can’t find a more suitable word to describe this Malaysian traditional sweet bites... it looks like one, being shaped like one... deep fried... coat with crystal-like sugar.
Its sweet potato donuts without yeast.
Making these donuts were easy but to coat them with sugar can be a bit tricky.
My first was a disaster, syrup was overcooked and as soon as I add kuih keria into the wok, instead of evenly coating the donuts, the sugar started to crystallised almost immediately
...some donuts had massive rock sugar stuck to it...some had a few bits and pieces... while some had none!
Most sugar crystals, about a cup, loose in the work ( I should have save these sugar crystals to use on chouquettes...hmmm not very clever of me!! )
Take two...
kids were delighted that mom's first attempt was a disaster... meaning that mom will make her second batch for her blog, and they get to eat it again ;P
My second attempt gave a much desired result... :D
