P.S : Recipe is from kai on Farmland page. This recipe is best done using aluminium foil cup moulds or silicone moulds rather than paper cup moulds. I used paper cups which is not a good idea. The batter requires more support and should have raised further. But the taste was good.
Ingredients :
180g of all purpose flour
80g powdered sugar or to taste
180 ml water to mix with sugar
3 teaspoon of baking powder
Food colouring – yellow, green, pink
Procedures :
- Mix 80g of powdered sugar with 180 ml water
- Add 180 g of flour to the sugar/water mixture. Keep stirring till no lumps are found.
- Add 3 teaspoon of baking powder and 3 teaspoon of water in a small bowl. Then add to the flour/sugar/water mixture. Stir continuously to incorporate air.
- Pour the batter mixture in 3 different bowls.
- Add yellow food colouring to the batter in first bowl, add green food colouring to the batter in second bowl, add third food colouring to the batter in third bowl. Stir.
- In small aluminium foil cup moulds, pour the batter to fill half the mould. Repeat till all batter is filled in cup moulds.
- Steam the fortune cake for 15-17 minutes.
- Demould when the cakes have cooled.
Serve with tea or coffee!!
