sujih

l'm looking for a good recepy for kueh sujih
any one ??

I would also post the request for the recipe on <news:alt.food.asian> if I
were you.

I have no idea if the following recipes are good, but here they are, anyway,
as I couldn't find any other. Also, I have no idea if these are indeed what
you are seeking.

-- The first one is an English translation of the Kuih Suji recipe found on
the Malaysian version of the site at
<http://www.qbb.com.sg/recipes/recipe_list.php?language=my>.

From <http://www.qbb.com.sg/recipes/recipe_list.php?language=en>

Note: It seems QBB is a brand of ghee. Also, it seems that "suji" (various
transliterations) is semolina, so it would stand to reason to use semolina
flour instead of plain one.

-- The second one is from
<http://vanessafrida.multiply.com/recipes/item/12>.

-- The third one is from
<http://tastegoblet.blogspot.com/2006/03/mnc-perks-and-sugee-biscuits.html>.

The fourth and the fifth ones are respectively from
<http://202.186.86.35/kuali/recipes/xmas98.html#sugee>
and
<http://202.186.86.35/kuali/recipes/22beh0501.html#sugee>

The sixth one is from
<http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~siti/personal/Resepi/KuehMueh.htm#sugee>.

Sugee Biscuits
(makes about 60 tiny biscuits)

3/8 cup semolina (rava)+
3/8 cup caster sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup icing sugar
the slightest pich of salt
3 tbsp of ghee, softened

Stir together the semolina and caster sugar in a large bowl. Sift the
flour, icing sugar and salt into the bowl and stir everything until
combined Spoon in the ghee and stir lightly with a metal spoon until
everything forms a soft dough. Scoop out half teaspoonfuls of dough,
roll into small balls and place on ungreased cookie trays. Press ever so
slightly with your fingers to flatten the balls of dough. Bake at 170
degree C for about 15 minutes, until the biscuits look a little dried
and have the tiniest cracks on the surface. Anyone's who's eaten sugee
biscuits will know how yucky they can taste if they are overbrowned so
make sure they are still beige when you take them out of the oven.

I suggest you really use a half-teaspoon measure for this dough to
ensure uniformity in your biscuits. Because they are small, you have to
take them all out of the oven at the same time. If they are unevenly
sized, the larger biscuits will take a longer time to bake and the
smaller ones will overbrown by that time. It's a little bit of a hassle,
precisely measuring out the dough, but worth it.
