One of the things that I really miss after moving to US is all the Malaysian kuih muih. You just cannot buy them even at asian grocers who sell mostly Vietnamese kuih muih. They look the same but are not. I like all kinds of kuih and know how to make a small number of them from school days but you gotta admit some of them are really difficult to make. Ah that’s the price I pay for being lazy too.

Tried this using my own imagination the other day. Yum yum! Eggplants  stuffed with fresh fish paste, pan fried till eggplants are soft, then braised in spicy sauce with some salted bean, chili garlic sauce, a tad of dark soy sauce for color.

I made these for a recent party and it was quite a big hit. Easy to make using the wonton wrappers. Filling can be anything you like. I made a vegetarian filling with peanut sauce.

Ingredients:

1 package of Wonton wrappers

Filling:
Carrots, cucumber, cilantro, fried tofu. Julienne all these ingredients and mix well in a bowl with some sesame seed oil, salt and pepper. Chill in the refrigerator.

1. Heat oven to 375 F. Slightly grease a tray of mini muffin cups.

2. Gently press one wonton wrapper into each muffin cup until the entire tray is filled with wonton wrappers.
