Steamed Rice Cake / Chwee Kueh
This is steamed rice cake or popular as Chwee kueh, with preserved turnip and pickled mustard topping, chili sauce and toasted sesame seeds. It is a very popular dish in Singapore as favorite breakfast or snack item. Usually I make these chwee kueh for our lunch. The texture is really nice, smooth and very light.
Those that are sold at hawker centers usually do not add sweet pickled mustard in their topping. But I found it too salty if I use only persevered radish. I always make the topping in a big batch and divide into a few small packets and store it in the freezer, it can be kept in the freezer up to a month and heat up before use.
I do the same with the chili sauce, I use homemade chili sauce. We call this chili sauce as sambal nasi lemak, because normally we have this sambal as side dish for our coconut rice (nasi lemak).
