班兰九层糕 Pandan 9-Layers Cake | Kuih Lapis

Ingredient
220g Tapioca Flour
70g Rice flour
150g fine sugar
1/4tsp salt
400g coconut milk
300g boiling water
2 tbsp pandan juice
Green coloring.


Method
Watch the Youtube for the method


Afternote:
I wanted to give credit to the creator of this recipe on youtube because he really spent effort to tune the recipe to perfection. I used pandan juice to make this instead of pandan essense and coloring therefore the green on the kueh tends to off a bit. 

The oil emit from the coconut milk after steaming will give the kueh a shining effect and also created a layer inbetween each layer if u enjoyed them by peeling one after another. This is how the old school person like me will eat the kueh.
