This time, I'm featuring the sweet version of glutinous rice dumplings with red bean fillings as oppose to the savoury versions. I've tried my hand in wrapping some but it was totally a disaster hahaha. PureGlutton had showed some of us how to make it last year and most of us gave up after trying 1 or 2. Luckily she was very patient in trying to save up our dumplings, phewww. Her dumplings are filled to the brim with all my favourite ingredients and one of the best we ever have ;-)
Anyway, shown here are the glutinous rice dumplings with red bean fillings also known as karn zhui (alkaline) zhung. Most times these rice dumplings are plain without any fillings and to be eaten with kaya or palm sugar syrup. This is my favourite kinda dumplings as compared to the savoury ones.
If you're celebrating, we would like to wish you a happy Duan Wu Jie!
I'm submitting this for Muhibbah Malaysian Monday blog event. This event is the brainchild of Shaz (Test With A Skewer) and Suresh (3 Hungry Tummies). Read more here.

Did you know that they even have halal beef zhung? So creative.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a sweet tooth so I have to pass on this one but I absolutely love the savoury ones, especially with a bonus piece of pork belly and egg yolk in there :)
