Simple and Nice Chinese Yam Cake

As per Tuti’s comment, “pete posted so many food pics that now he's taking a break from food blogging for a while. LOL! :P”, in my post A Chinese Wedding – Shopping Spree, Wine and Dine! Yammmmmm Seeeennngggg (Cheers)!, I am still digesting all the good food from the dinner so can’t go out and eat anymore for the time being! Ha ha ha! Anyway, I cooked some yam cake and it was great to have this simple meal. I love to eat yam cake with red ‘theem cheong’ (sweet sauce) and garlic chili sauce (Kg Koh). I normally make yam cake with hard texture (just add less water) because my kids love it this way instead of the gooey soft ones. For yam cake recipe, check out my post, Chinese Yam Cake Recipe. Cheers, have a nice week ahead!

I love yam cakes and anything to do with yam. But it's hard to find good yam cakes that aren't starchy these days. Home-made ones are definitely better.

Add more yam ya, I like with chunk of yam inside and more dried prawn and more fried onion on top... I tried before but out lousy.
