Bubur Kacang and Gendang Kasturi

One day I felt like eating Gendang Kasturi. Never done it before and it hard to find if you are living near Heathrow. So I called my Mom in Johor Bahru to get the recipes. When you get your recipes from you mom you will never get the quantity of the stuffs you need, she just said you need this and that only. So I just do as I go by.

Bubur Kacang
250 g green beans
5 tbsp sugar
3 tbsp brown sugar/ mascova sugar
2 cups of coconut milk
4 - 5 cups of water

Wash the green beans, put in the pot together with water and boil it for 30 minutes than put all the other ingredients and let it boil few minutes more and it ready to eat. (some people put ginger and some also put salt)

8 tbsp sugar

Batter
1/2 cup self-raising flour
1/4 cup corn flour
1 tbsp rice flour
Pinch of salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
180ml water or just enough

Enough oil for deep-frying

Method
Combine the various flours, salt and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Pour in water and combine into a batter.

Wash the green beans, put in a pot together and boil for 30 to 40 minutes and put the sugar and coconut and let it cook until no water left, make sure you stir it around.

Cool it and after that make a small disc.

Heat the Oil. Coat the green dics in batter and deep-fry in hot oil for three to four minutes or until crispy and golden brown. Remove and drain
