One of my all times favourite snack from childhood till now is Muah Chee. It is a simple snack made of glutinous rice flour with peanut powder. We can always buy at the pasar malam (stalls at night market) or at the carnival stalls. It costs around S$2 for a small packet and you can never get enough of it.
Bff L, suggested cooking muah chee after stumbling upon a simple recipe. 'It just takes minutes' was her reply. I wondered if that was true but we decided to go ahead with her plan. We have got nothing to lose but lots to gain if we manage to master it. To our surprise, it is really easy to prepare muah chee at home. Trust me. All we need are ingredients and a microwave.
While enjoying our delicious homecooked muah chee, we chatted about opening a stall to sell it. We dreamt of making big bucks together and at the same time, able to enjoy our favourite snacks. Great bonding session with bffs!
Seriously, it never occurred to me to prepare this snack at home. Maybe that's why we always look forward to getting it whenever we pass by such stall. Went home and told mummy about it. And guess what. She mentioned that when grandfather used to be around, he loved to cook it at home too but was using the wok and not microwave. Oh man, I don't recall eating the homemade muah chee by grandfather.
I guess maybe it's time that I asked Mummy to cook this for me soon or rather maybe I will do it for her instead.
