About

Nian Gao, Year Cake or Chinese New Year's cake is a food prepared from glutinous rice and consumed in Chinese Cuisine. I steamed the Nian Gao together with white grated coconut and serve them within 10 minutes. This method is healthier than pan fried and you can also dip them with ground peanut like Muah Chee.
