Carrot Cake (1st attempt) on 26 Sep 2013

My mum has been a great cook, and she's been steaming carrot cake for the past many years. I did not learn from her how to do so, but I've been wanting to learn to do it for quite some time. Since I've been into a cooking mood lately and found this appetising looking recipe on http://ieatishootipost.sg/2013/05/carrot-cake-chai-tow-kueh-recipe-with.html, I went hunting for the ingredients and finally made it. Hopefully it tastes nice as it had smelled nice!

The raddish that I bought was much bigger, weighing approximately 750g. Hence, I adjusted the recipe accordingly, and the amount of mixture that I got was just nice to almost filling up a 10" by 3" round tin pan.

The steamed product (not the final product yet as it still need to be put into fridge to set it overnight and fried it):

Hopefully, I have time to fry the condiment - garlic and chye poh tomorrow. I would not be putting pork lard though as it's better to be a bit health conscious, especially cooking for my young ones. After frying the condiment, hopefully I can fry the carrot cake and taste it!
