Mum's Cooking is The Best! Part 1

Mum is a really great cook which is the main reason why 4 of her 6 kids suffered from childhood obesity. (Note that the esteemed writer is one of the two lucky ones heheh.) Unfortunately, most of her children have not inherited her cooking skills. (Note the esteemed writer is one of the unfortunate ones in this case.) One of the things that Mum makes every so often and is luuurrrved by Dad is : Taro Cake. Kinda like the carrot cake you get at Yum Cha. Same texture and similar taste. Except Mum puts those tiny dried prawns in her taro cake which makes it so fragrant and yummy.

Steamed Taro Cake fresh out of the steamer:

Piece of the taro cake. Bit mushy looking because it was piping hot so the shape hadn't quite gelled.

Deep fried version:

Yum yumm.... all in my tum tumm now.
