Kuih Dadar (Sweet Coconut Roll)

This morning I made some Kuih Dadar for breakfast. I got inspired to make this when I tasted some delicious ones made by Sr. Ume.

I used the recipe from the book 'The Joy of Cooking: Local Kueh' (ISBN: 957-28458-6-1)

Filling:
80g brown sugar
40ml water
200g grated coconut
1/3 tsp salt
2tsp sifted glutinous rice flour

Direction: Cook brown sugar with water until sugar dissolves. Add grated coconut and salt and stir-fry till mixture is fairly dry. Add glutinous rice flour and stir to mix well. Remove and set aside.

Batter:
100g sifted plain flour
1 egg
1/3 tsp salt
150ml water

(This recipe uses 1 tbsp pandan juice (4 pandan leaves blended with water, then strained), but I omitted because I didn't have any.)

Mix all ingredients till smooth and set aside for 1/2 hour.

Pour a little oil onto a heated flat-bottomed frying pan. Pour 1 tablespoon batter and lightly swirl pan to let batter spread into a thin pancake. Heat till pancake is cooked then remove and let cool. Place coconut filling on pancake and roll up like a spring roll.

Another version of the recipe can be found on Lily's Wai Sek Hong blog site.
