Steam Sticky Cake '年糕'

Wanted to try this recipe eversince some time ago. Today, finally i gave it a try. Had been checking through various recipes online and even watched some You-tube videos for the easiest way to make this sticky snack. This recipe had been halved since i am experimenting it for the first time.

Ingredients :

500 g Glutinous Rice Flour
100 g Rice Flour
420 g Canned Sugar
500 g Water
2 tbsp oil

Methods:

1. Melt sugar to water, and allow the syrup to cool.
2. Sift the 2 flours into a working bowl. Using a whisk, slowly pour in the cool syrup to the dry mixture.Whisk till the lumps are removed. If the batter gets a bit thick, add some water slowly to get a smooth flowing tendency. Finally, stir in the 2 tbsp oil. This is avoid cracking of the cake during steaming.

3. Oil a steaming tray alternative lined the tray with banana leaves. Steam for 50 - 60 minutes over high heat.
