I guess many are busy baking cakes, tarts or cookies lately since Chinese New Year is just around the corner. I am too lazy to made the cookies myself. Baking cakes and cookies are something very tedious.. Some people might enjoy doing it, but not me. So I take the easy way out -->
buy from Supermarket :) Simple and easy :P
Kuih Bangkit - Ingredients : tapioca flour, sugar, coconut milk (santan) and egg. The ingredients sound simple but it's not easy to bake. The cookies are crispy but melt in the mouth once eaten :)
Peanut/Groundnut crunch.
More
peanut/groundnut cookies.. Now I realise I bought too many peanut related products. (Not mentioning packets and packets of
Ngan Yin Groundnuts (cap tangan or thumb up groundnuts) and
garlic flavoured Supernut Groundnuts (my favourite). If not mistaken I bought more than 10 packets. :P Luckily there are no monkeys nearby my house, hahahha....

Not good to drink so much carbonated sugary drinks :)

Chinese New Year falls on the first day of the first month of the new year according to Chinese Lunar calendar, which is 29th January this year, so another 4 more days to go :)
Hi Doc, i like ur photos bolder, what kind of software used? gong xi fa chai doc :)
fuiyo...that mouth-watering kuih bangkit...not easy to make.
and i agree with you chen. since we're not good at making cookies, let the expert do it. let their business run...hehe
Buy from supermarket not nice one lah.. must buy from those diehard aunty trying to make an extra money for the new year.
Save the economy and do an extra.
Wilson,

Nurul,
Hehhe.. yeah, let the expert do it :D
Every field has their own expert ;)
Robin,
Too troublesome to look for those die-hard aunty production :D
I dunno where are they :P
So many cookies. Make my mouth watering and stomach drumming.
Why don't have the Sarawak delicacies kom pian? I can't find kom pian in KL leh... any idea where can get? Kam puan got a few stalls I know, but are not as good as those we have back in S'wak.
i habis my tag dy :D
yalor...
angkuku is when u wanna make a baby laugh mar
kekekeke...
jacky,
I have written many posts on Sarawak delicacies previously, in my November and December archives..
I wrote about kom piah as well :)
U can go there and have a look if u r interested..
I know kom piahs are available in Sitiawan,
KL area I dunno..
I can get all these in Penang as well..
Winn,
okei.. will go there look look see see later on :)
jellyfish,
*pengsan*
what is this angkuku cookies then?
make babies laugh cookies? ahhahah..
Eh, isn't the second picture called kuih batang buruk?
agus,
that cookies no doubt look like batang buruk but it's not :)
this one is like layers of thin slices sweet peanut being rolled up..
I dunno what is the actual name...
Hi Chen,
I was surprised to read that kom piah is available in Penang? You mean the crusty ones that you pop into the oven?? (salivating...)Pls tell us where to get them?
As we're not going home to Kuching this year, having some for CNY would make hubby very, VERY happy =)
If only we can get Sundrop orange juice also...
Sorry...the kom piah photos made me forget my manners - HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU & YOUR FAMILY!
kittycat,
Sorry, oops.. typing error on the previous comment..
I didn't notice about that.. guess I type too fast :P
should be "I can't get all these in Penang"
sorry for the typing mistake :)
Happy Chinese New Year to u & your family too :)
A few years back, in a fit of assumed domestication, I roped my mum into my scheme of making kuih bangkit. We rang the grand aunty up in Penang and got the recipe off her. What followed was a lot of kneading and sweat. I now appreciate a good melt in your mouth kuih bangkit. Thanks for your blog. Perhaps this CNY will see me return to my psuedo domesticated self. A window into my true self? Pshawwww
I am hungry again ... hurray my last call tomorrow ... then I am off for CNY ... hehe
what's up Doc, I was once stopped at the US custom with a bag of Kueh Bangkit from my friend's mom, kinda difficult to explain a bag of powdery stuff.
chen,
too bad, my house dun have kuih bangkit.. :p
edina,
Thanks for sharing your story..
making kuih bangkit is definitely not an easy task :)
sbanboy,
home sweet home :)
I start on leave from tomorrow onwards, yeah :D
cooknengr,
Wow, what an experience...
But the kuih bangkit has nice smell compared to those illegal drug stuff, right? ;)
or give them some to taste? :)
How u manage to settle it?
dino,
aiks, then buy some & give it to me, hahaha...
Chen - I'm devastated! Guess will have to wait for MIL to bring in the kom piah later when she comes over. It would have been really fascinating if it was available here! Cheers!!!
kittycat,
heheh.. sorry for the confusion :)
I hope it's available here as well, but.. there's no foochow or not many foochow ppl here..
Can get it in Sitiawan, but that is too far away though..
but still nearer if compared to flying to Sarawak :D
chen,
u wan the kuih bangkit ah??
hmm.. can u wait for next year cny?? :P
dino,
I'm just joking only lah...
hahhaa... I can always get some from the supermarket or roadside stalls :D
I'm getting fat just looking at them. Yuumy.
pandabonium,
wow.. getting fat by just looking at the cookies?
that's dangerous ... :D
