Nyonya Kuih
“Kuih” is fairly like cake but it is made from rice or glutinous rice. The Nyonya Kuih has a long time history. It comes from a nation which is called “Baba Nyonya”. “Baba Nyonya” is the descendants of the Chinese intermarry with the Malacca local resident.
Nyonya Kuih has many different types of kuih but we only introduce about three popular type. Nyonya Kuih is most sweet and savoury.
The left one is called “pulut tekan”. It is made from glutinous rice with pea flowers so the Kuih colour is blue. You can eat it together with the kaya.
The middle one is called “kuih seri muka”. It is same with the left one. However, the kaya has already at the top of the kuih so you can just eat it.
The right one is called “kuih lapis”.
The price of the left one is RM 2 each, middle and right is RM 1 each.
The Kuih was colourful and nice. We bought a few of kuih to taste. It was very delicious and the kaya was very nice
If you are interested in the traditional food of the Baba Nyonya, I will recommend you to try this. The stall is available in night market and beside the coconut shake stall.
