Fried Nian Gao aka Chinese New Year Cake 炸年糕

Fried Nian Gao aka Sticky Glutinous Rice Cake is a tasty snack we eat during Chinese New Year.  It is considered good luck to eat Nian Gao during this festive season as the Chinese believe eating Nian Gao symbolises raising oneself taller, higher, or wealthier in each coming year. 

This is my go-to recipe for deep-fried Nian Gao, the texture is crisp on the outside, and soft and chewy inside.

Method:

1.  Add some oil to a wok and heat the oil (medium heat) to 180’C. Combine the batter ingredients.

I fried the Nian Gao using Song Cho stainless steel wok, a multi-ply stainless steel wok without chemical coating, it's safe to use in any cooking including deep-frying. 

For more information about the product, visit Song Cho e-shop for details.

2. Coat the Nian Gao with batter and deep fry until golden and crisp. 若喜欢我的食谱，可以LIKE和追随我的面书专页，不要错过最新食谱发布。
