Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, whisk together tapioca starch and rice flour until well combined.

    ~2 min
  2. 2

    In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, coconut milk, water, pandan extract, and salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is warm (do not boil).

    ~10 min
  3. 3

    Gradually pour the warm liquid mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into another bowl to ensure a smooth batter.

    ~5 min
  4. 4

    Divide the batter into two equal portions. Keep one portion as is, and whisk the pandan extract into the other portion to create the green layer batter.

    ~3 min
  5. 5

    Grease an 8-inch round pan with vegetable oil and line the bottom with parchment paper. Ensure your steamer is preheated and boiling.

    ~5 min
  6. 6

    Pour a thin layer of the plain batter into the preheated steamer. Steam for 5 minutes until set.

    ~5 min
  7. 7

    Carefully pour a thin layer of the green pandan batter over the steamed plain layer. Steam for another 5 minutes until set.

    ~5 min
  8. 8

    Continue layering the batters, alternating between plain and green, steaming each layer for 5 minutes until all batter is used. The final layer should be the green pandan batter.

    ~75 min
  9. 9

    Once the final layer is steamed, continue steaming for an additional 15-20 minutes to ensure the cake is fully cooked and set.

    ~20 min
  10. 10

    Remove the cake from the steamer and let it cool completely on a wire rack before unmolding and slicing.

    ~10 min

Tips

  • Ensure your steamer is at a rolling boil before adding each layer of batter for even cooking.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing to prevent it from sticking and to achieve clean cuts.
