Kek Lumut (Sarawak Steamed Green Cake)

 I made this delicious cake as a gift to Cik Riz who invited us for lunch at her house today. This cake is very popular in Sarawak but typically Sarawak cake require long hours of steaming which produces very moist cake. The rich ingredients make it very tasty and one piece is definitely not going to be enough....

My top photo shows a cut while the cake is still hot so it looks crumbly whilst the bottom photo looks more neat & moist when sliced a day later.
