Roti Goreng (Fried Bun )


During tea time or breakfast Malaysian love to munch on kuihs. What is kuih? Kuih could be steamed buns...currypuff...pastries...pies.....simple and non-heavy food that we usually have for tea or breakfast. It could be sweet...hot....or even spicy.This fried bun is one of the kuihs that I love to have either for tea or breakfast or anytime during the day. It's very similar to steamed buns (pau) but instead of steaming it...you fry it. Normally it has red bean filling but to suit your taste buds you can substitutes with any other kind of fillings like curry potato or sweet potato with chicken, or even sweet or hot coconut fillings. But my favourite always has to be red bean fillings. Here is a step by step recipe on how to prepare yourself Kuih Roti Goreng

2. Add in the water and start kneading. When everything is well mixed add in the shortening and carry on kneading until a soft, elastic and non sticky dough is formed. If you find that the dough is still sticking to your hands, just simply dip your hands into some flour and knead again until it doesn't stick anymore. The dough must be soft an elastic in order to get soft buns.

3. After that prove the dough until it doubles up the size. Covered.

5. In a wok heat the oil and then fry the buns on medium heat until it turns golden. Let the buns to cool for a few minutes before you can enjoy it with your tea.
