The kuih QUIZ

Yesterday, I had an interesting conversation with my good friend who is a self-proclaimed kuih traditional enthusiast and I realized that I was not really one. All my favourite kuih(s) are of the deep fried variety (hehe). So I wondered how many traditional kuih(s) do I actually know. Would you recognize them if you saw them at your Pasar Ramadhan? Are they on your most wanted list? Let's see, shall we?

(Answers: akok, buah melaka/onde-onde, cara berlauk, jala emas, kuih lapis, kuih bakar, seri muka, tepung pelita, kole kacang and badak berendam)

So, how did you do? Easy peasy right. That's because I really don't know the rarer ones. Out of the whole list I like only half and my favourites are onde-onde, akok and kole kacang. Other than that, soft squishy kuih(s) really are not my cup of tea. Will eat but will have to be amazing for me to eat more than one.

This is just how I feel waiting for iftar..hehe (source)

||A LITTLE EXTRA||

Just uploaded 3 new books to the online book club, come and browse through these and more at Hidayah's Book Club. Will lend them to you for free :) More books coming soon.

I suka akok perasa pandan , tepung pelita and cara berlauk tu! Yummy!
Masalahnya sometimes beli2 tapi tak sedap.
In Kota Bharu we know where to get delicious akok. Tiap2 minggu pegi situ :)

I like kuih Tepung pelita ...but nowadays many sell it very cincai. The thing too soft and too sweet

yeah..so hard to find really good kuih nowadays :(
hey hey hey ramadhan kareem CEd + family! errr i dont know most of the kuih's name :S but i defo know how it look's like! [ hoho biasanya tunjuk2 jer kan, "kak nak yg nihs 3 please" ].. anyways I think the book sharing idea is genius! :D CEd, have u consider to read the softcopy novels? it's environment friendly, cheaper and space saving. we've been doing that now and we think very practical :)

hehe.. same here..(it saves the embarassment of being totally wrong)..

I have a few softcopy novels but .. I kinda find it a bit hard to really enjoy reading on the screen ..plus it's not portable (unless I buy some high-tech expensive reader thingy ..hehe)
