Directions
Seri Muka is an amazing Malaysian kuih (sweet cake) made of glutinous rice, coconut milk, sugar and pandan leaves. Seri Muka is a dainty and yummy dessert. In another manner, kueh means local sweet cakes or desserts.
For your info, Seri Muka is a Malay and Nyonya (nyonya are Chinese which migrated to Malaysia and have a very good blending with Malay culture and heritage, but still remain as Chinese) kuih made of glutinous rice and pandan leaves. The kueh are so pretty, with natural green color and cut into small pieces. More importantly, seri muka is absolutely delightful—sweet, laden with coconut milk, with a nice sticky texture.
They go extremely well with a cup of coffee in the morning, or as an afternoon snack.
