Durian pancake and kuih keria

Curiosity killed the cat... that is exactly why I made durian pancake. I have never tasted one but due to overwhelming fuss about it in facebook... I thought I would give a try. To be honest, I am not really a durian fan though my whole family are..... and my verdict...to my surprise... the pancake is sinfully surprisingly delicious. I would definitely make it again!

Durian Pancake

Ingredients ( make 10 small pancakes)

125 g plain flour

250 ml coconut milk

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp pandan paste

durian

butter for greasing the pan

125 ml fresh double cream

Method

mix plain flour, coconut milk, salt and pandan paste in the blender.

using slow heat, heat the non stick pan and grease it with butter.

add 1 ladle of batter into the pan and smooth it into round shape. ( Do not flip the pancake to the other side to produce a smooth finishing of the pancake).

Cold the pancake on the plate. If you want to layer the pancake with the successive pancakes, please separate the pancakes using the plastic to prevent them from sticking with each other.

Beat the double cream until it is thick and stiff.

To assemble the pancake

Put the double cream in the middle of pancake, then add the durian on top of the double cream. Later, add another dollop of cream to cover the durian.

Fold the pancake into a square and chill them in the fridge.
