Golden Dumplings (Thong-Ek)


(pic: tankitchen-dessert)

Ingredients :

1 cup coconut milk
1 cup sugar
5-6 egg yolks
1 cup sifted wheat flour

How To Make :

1. Mix the coconut milk with sugar in a deep-frying pan (deep-bottom brass wok, specifically for cooking sweetmeat) over moderate heat. Bring to a boil, remove from heat and strain, then return to the pan and simmer until thick (about the consistency of condensed milk), remove from heat, stir to cool, add beaten egg yolks one at a time and stir to mix, until all is mixed well.

2. Return the pan to the low heat. When the mixture is heated, stir in the flour slowly a little at a time. Cook further for 5 minutes. Keep stirring until cooked through and the mixture no longer sticks to the pan. Remove and let cool a little bit.

3. While still warm, but possible to handle with hand, spoon some if the cooked mixture and press into the wooden molds. Then knock to remove the golden dumpling from the molds. Arrange and store dumplings in a tightly closed glass jar scented with jasmine and kradang-nga flowers.
