Fried floating cake, floating cake filled with fresh coconut

Although the traditional floating cake has its own delicious taste, if you want, you can still customize the unique recipes from this cake. Here is how to make fried floating cakes and fresh coconut floating cakes for your reference:

How to make fried floating cakes:

• Boiled drift cake

• Crispy fried flour

• If the cake is left in the refrigerator, let it boil again. Be sure to use your chopsticks to gently separate the floating balls so they don’t stick together. After boiling, let the cake float into cold water.

• Roll each cake evenly through the fried dough.

• Heat oil in a pan (not old heat but only 6 parts). Let the cake float and fry over low or medium heat.

• Fry until golden brown. Because the cake is cooked, it does not need to be fried for too long, it will infuse the oil and crush it.

• Pick the cake into oil absorbent paper to remove excess oil and enjoy.

The outside is crispy, soft inside, has a strange taste and delicious, making sure many people like it.

How to make the cake floating with the fresh coconut less sweet

• 500g of ready-made dough drifting cake

• 200g of fresh copra

• 30g cooked sesame seeds

• Curettage coconut

• White sugar, vanilla

• Fresh copra peel the outside, cut into small square balls (the size is equivalent to sugar tablets). Blanch fresh coconuts through boiling water, rinse to remove the coconut oil.

• Let the fresh coconut marinated with a little sugar and vanilla within 1 hour to make the coconut taste sweet and fragrant. If you like darker sweet than you can snail coconut with medium heat to let the coconut taste.

• Take a small piece of flour, add the freshly prepared coconut, round the cake. Do it in turn until all the flour and filling are gone. (If you like, you can add color powder to the powder to look beautiful)

• Bring the water to a boil, gently drop each floating ball into it. Wait for the cake to cook, float it out then take it out, soak it in a bowl of cold water. (It is recommended to add a few ice cubes and a little oil in the bowl of soaking water to make the cake shiny and not melt or crush.)

• Use the patch to pick up the cake and arrange it on a plate, sprinkle with sesame (grated coconut as you like) and enjoy.

Five flavor drift cake

Instead of making the traditional crust from glutinous rice flour, the cake only has the white color of the dough, we can mix the dough with water from the pineapple leaves (green), beetroot (red), and pumpkin (color). yellow), purple cabbage (purple) … to create a natural color for the dish. This method is both safe for health and makes the cake more eye-catching and its flavor is much more unique and attractive.

Red bean water float cake

Instead of making the traditional green bean paste, we can use the red bean paste to change its taste while still extremely delicious and easy to eat. Depending on the taste of each person, we can make the red bean paste sweet or medium sweet, and note that you should eat with ginger juice to get the fullest taste of the floating cake bowl. It is believed that at the beginning of the first year of the month, if you eat a cake with red bean juice, it will be extremely smooth and successful to do anything.

The red bean paste is not difficult to make, but the taste is extremely “addictive”.

Eat with ginger juice to see all the deliciousness.

Cake drifting way

If you still want to keep the traditional flavor of cakes with white skin and green beans, but you have to express the personality of your youth, then as long as you have a little skill, you can transform the round balls into shapes. very cute. Or more simply, with just a little investment in the setup, you will have the image of the floating cake bearing the imprint of young people.
