This is my mother’s recipe. She used to make this “cake” when I was little, for her catering business.
It is sweet but also savory at the same time. It’s just brilliant in my opinion, as it combines two of my favorite flavors haha
You can bake it as a loaf, using tube pan as I did bellow, cupcake size and whatnot.
- 1/4 large onion sliced
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 c lean ground beef
- 1 tsp Vegeta powder a pinch of ground white pepper, and 2 tbsp sweet soy sauce, such as Indonesian ABC brand
- 2 tbsp butter
- 100 ml milk
- 1 tsp Pandan paste
- Heat and saute
- Add in 1 c lean ground beef, brown
- Season with 1 tsp Vegeta powder, a pinch of ground white pepper, and 2 tbsp sweet soy sauce, such as Indonesian ABC brand
- Beat 4 eggs with 100 g sugar
- Beat in 150 g flour mixed with a pinch of salt
- Melt 2 tbsp butter
- Beat in melted butter into batter, followed with 100 ml milk
- Preheat steamer, wrap the lid with clean towel
- Divide batter into two
- Leave one as is, add 1 tsp Pandan paste to the other half
- Pour white batter on mold, steam 5-7 mins
- Sprinkle ground beef on top
- Pour green batter, steam 5-7 minutes
- Repeat steps
- Steam the whole for another 20 mins
Serve warm is heaven but room temperature is good as well. Best, serve it with your favorite hot sauce, like Sriracha. YUM!
Definitely give this recipe a try!
