Kuih Makmur Inti Jem Nenas

Assalammualaikum w.b.t. and hello!

Syawal will be here in just few days. 2 days to be exact. All of us in the mood of celebrating 1st of Syawal. Some might wait to spend up for cheaper things at the last minute..for cookies, baju kurung, lemang, ketupat, shawls..the list goes on..

Some who is awesome (sengaja..:D) shall try my family's recipe, Kuih Makmur. Believe me, it is easier than you think and it taste simply good.

Recipe: Kuih Makmur with Pineapple filling

This recipe is from my Opah sedara and she mentioned that no precise measurement required. Which makes things easier!

Ingredients
: Dough
3/4 packet of Wheat flour
1 tin of Ghee

:Pineapple filling
A pineapple (grated)
Spoonful of sugar, proportionate to amount of pineapple.

:Finishing
Caster sugar (grounded),  for coating





Methods 
  

1.  Prepare the filling first, so it has time to cool down. You don't want to burn your finger. Just put all the grated pineapple and sugar. Too much of sugar will get it too hard and tedious to work with. Let it reduced.
2. For the dough, put in little by little ghee onto the flour and yes, use your hand please. You have to feel it to ensure it soft enough and easy to mold.
3. The fun time! Mold the dough into balls and put a pinch of filling at the center and it ready to bake :)
4. Preheat the oven for 5 minutes first and bake it for 20 minutes at 180 degrees. Tadaa..
5. Powdered the cookies with grounded sugar and it's ready to be served.

Selamat Hari Raya!
