Durian Pillow

DURIAN PILLOWAdapted from : Cik Manggis

Ingredients :

250g flour
3 eggs
*500 ml fresh coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
a few drops of yellow food coloring

Fresh durian filling
Whipped cream

Note :
* Coconut milk, mix 100ml thick coconut milk to 400ml water. Stir.

Method :

1. Place flour, eggs, fresh milk, salt and food coloring in a blender. Blend till well mix and put through a sieve.
2. Keep the batter for at least 15 minutes.
3. Heat a non stick pan and pour a ladle of batter onto the pan. Spread the batter by turning the pan around.
4. Cook just for a minute or two. Remove from heat. Repeat the same procedure till all the batter had been used up.
5. To assemble, place a dollop of fresh cream and top it with durian filling on top of the thin pancake and roll it like a pillow.
6. Ready to serve.

1. Whip the cream with the sugar until stiff. Chill
2. You can blend the durian flesh or mash it with a fork. I think I prefer to mash with a fork because the blended durian was too mushy and the fibers were all cut up.
3. You can mix the cream with the durian or leave separate.

To assemble:
Put a heaped tablespoon of whipped cream onto the center of the pancake (smooth/unfried side facing plate), top with a level half tablespoon of durian flesh, and fold into a small, puffed rectangular pillow. If you have mixed the cream and durian, just plop a large tablespoon onto the middle of the pancake and fold. Chill very well before serving.

  • 100g grated gula melaka
  • Grating for the ball:
  • 200g grated coconut (white part only) and a pinch of salt. Steam for 5 minutes and leave to cool. (This helps it to keep better and the grated coconut won't spoil so fast.)

  • Method:-

    2.Pour the mixture immediately into the glutinous rice flour in a large mixing bowl. Stir till it is well absorbed. Add the mashed sweet potato and mix well to form a dough until the dough no longer sticks to your hand.

    3.Pinch a small piece of dough into small balls with your palms. Then flatten the ball and put a bit of the filling in the centre.

    4.Seal the ball and roll again into round balls. Bring apot of water to boil. Drop the balls into boiling water until they float to the surface. Then it's ready to be removed with a strainer.

    5.Coat the round balls with grated coconut and serve immediately.
