Ongol Ongol



This is an old time fav, brings back childhood memory of mum making it, though the shape is normally round, as it was scooped with spoon before rolled into coconut.
I have looked into various recipes, and choose this one to try. It has right combination of water/flour.

For those that like very chewy texture, this is the recipe.
Ingredient:
A. 130g tapioca flour
300 ml water

B 150 g palm sugar
100ml water
1pandan leave

C Dessicated coconut and a pinch of salt
  
Melt palm sugar with 100 ml of water and pandan leave on stove.
You should ended up with 200 ml of melted palm sugar- strain to get rid of any sandy bits

Mixed tapioca flour with 300 ml of water. Take 3 table spoon of this mixture and pour it into piping hot palm sugar, stir quickly ,to get a thick mixture.

pour in the rest of tapioca mixture and steam it for 40 minutes or until its transparant.

when it has cooled down, cut into slices and roll into coconut.
