Water Chestnut 'Cake' 馬蹄糕


With all the heavy food in the Chinese New Year, there got to be something lighter. Water chestnut cake is just such thing. It is quite easy to make just chop up some fresh water chestnut, cook it briefly with rock sugar and water; dissolve some water chestnut starch in cold water and stir it into the hot liquid until it forms a light jello like mix; pour into a cake pan and steam until set firmly. Good to eat as is or pan fry till lightly brown.
