Steamed Ma Lai Sponge Cake (Ma Lai Gao) by CiCi Li

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Ma Lai Gao (Steamed Ma Lai Sponge Cake) originated in Malaysia and was inspired by British cakes. Later, it was adapted by Cantonese chefs and become what we see in dim sum today. Traditionally, Ma Lai Gao needs about 24 hours to prepare the starter dough (levain). Today, let me show you a quick and easy way to make Ma Lai Gao without sacrificing its taste or texture.

    thank you! I made it and it turned out really good. Just a tip for others... let the batter ferment a little longer than an hour until it is fluffy, it depends on the oven temperature or climate where you are in :)
