TwitterHow To Cook Turnip Pudding
Turnip pudding is highly popular among Cantonese families as a Chinese New Year festival food. Many of us DIY at home and it's lots of fun. Today is the CNY eve and I have been busy making turnip pudding at home.
I don't have any professional recipe, all steps were inherited from my mother which in turn was from many generations before. There are many steps but we enjoy doing it.
How To Cook Turnip Pudding - Step by Step
1. Smash turnips.
2. Get some preserved meats such as lap cheung, dry shrimps and cut them into small pieces.
3. Boilded the turnips.
4. Stir fry the preserved meats briefly.
5. Mix the boiled turnips, preserved meats and add flour (粘米粉). Use only 粘米粉 for the making of turnip pudding. Stir well while adding flour to the mixture.
6. Divide the pudding mixture into pudding plates.
7. Steam for 1.5 hours and start eating.

Time to eat - enjoying my hardwork.
I enjoy eating turnip pudding immediately after cooking. This is the best time and most delicious way to eat turnip pudding. When it cools down, you need to reheat by steaming, pan fried or micro-wave. Honestly I don't like any of these methods as the turnip pudding will be less delicious. If you want to eat the most yummy turnip pudding, make it yourself and eat it immediately after steaming. Try it out. I'm sure you'll agree with me.
