The kids at home especially Leen loves to eat this Hakka kueh we called it Hee Pan. My 6th Kor used to make this kueh, but when I asked for her recipe…adui all also agak-agak. Hence, I decide google for it and finally found it at Aunty Yochana’s blog.  I decided to give it a try but then haven’t had the chance to eat it. I wonder what is Leen’s comment on this kueh because after that didn’t have the chance to ask her before she goes back to Oz. I think I will give it another try and had one for myself.
