First congrats on being a breast cancer survivor. Would you compile a series of food that you think helped you in your recovery?
Two: Your recipes are very thorough, not easy for most people to compile. Most of us cook like our mums and grandmas, a little of this, a little of that.
I grew up in Sarawak, though I have been out for almost 35 years, I still like the kuehs, and vegs. I got to your site when I was looking for loofah.
Good luck Rose.

Thank you very much for this recipe. It is one kueh that I grew up having as treats. We call it Kee Ah Kueh. Please let me know the best substitute for alkaline water. While it is readily available in Malaysia and Singapore, I do not know where I can get some in UK.
