Tapioca Kueh by Angela Seah Thulin


Never expect to make this in Sweden kitchen. The last time i had this was during my holiday in Singapore (in November) making at my mum's kitchen. This was one of my favorites so was for my husband. We took turns to grate it, seems quite tiring :p Anyway we made it and hubby brought a BIG piece to work as his breakfast. That shows that he really love it because his breakfast is usually either cereal with milk or oatmeal porridge. Try this super soft tapioca kueh!
