The Making of Seri Muka


Seri Muka, originally uploaded by gambar713.

Do you know what Seri Muka is? It is a traditional Brunei / malay sweet delicacy. Seri Muka literally means The Glow of the Face.

This delicious kueh has two layers. The bottom layer is made from rice, cooked in coconut milk with pandan leaves to induce a wonderful aroma. The top part is made from rice flour mixed with coconut milk too, and would usually be added with green food colouring. This layer is sweet, while the lower rice layer has the distinctive 'lemak' taste.

The photo collage does not really show the proper sequence, but it gives a good idea on how this wonderful kueh is made. It would probably take 2-3 hours from preparation until it is fully cooked. The Seri Muka has to be steamed for about 45 minutes, and you have to wait for it to cool down for a while before you can savour it!

Enjoy the photos!

P.S. : Thanks to Bu Timah (NeMah) for being the model & cook!
