Healthy Purple Sweet Potato Snow-skin Mooncake 健康紫薯冰皮月饼 （中英食谱教程）

In my earlier post, I shared my homemade purple sweet potato powder and I have used it to make this healthy snow-skin mooncake skin which uses olive oil instead of shortening. I have used quite a bit of this all natural food powder to achieve a vibrant purple and I am beyond happy with the result...of course as purple is my favorite color! :)  

上个帖子分享了自制的紫薯粉，用了它来做这个健康， 用橄榄油代替白油的冰皮月饼。我相当满意做出来的成品，觉得颜色很漂亮，当然...因为紫色是我最喜欢的颜色嘛！:)

Purple sweet potatoes also known as Okinawan sweet potatoes are richly nutritious.

Pumpkin Ondeh-Ondeh 南瓜椰丝球 （中英食谱教程）

Ondeh Ondeh, a traditional Malay and Nonya Kueh which is made of boiled glutinous rice balls filled with gula melaka and coated with grated coconut is like the Asian version of a Molten Lava Cake. As you bite into these chewy glutinous rice balls, the melted gula melaka will ooze out and lingers in your taste buds with sweetness and fragrance. It is usually made in pandan or sweet potato flavour. To support the pumpkin LTU event this month, I have made it in pumpkin flavour. My little boy who is not a fan of pumpkin, loves this kueh so much that he ate 9 pieces at one go! :)

Healthy All Natural Snow-skin Mooncake 健康全天然材料冰皮月饼 （中英食谱教程）

Made these healthy snow-skin mooncakes two days ago. The tri-colour skin was inspired by my Cute Caterpillar Cookies recipe. I have adapted this recipe from my Rainbow Snow-skin mooncakes which do not use any shortening at all. As one who advocates healthy eating, I avoid using unhealthy ingredients like shortening if possible. I have replaced the shortening with extra virgin olive oil and it did not compromise on the skin texture as it is still soft and chewy. For this recipe, I have used HK Black sesame paste from Kwong Cheong Thye. ($12 for a 1 kg pack). I love the great selection of mooncake paste there!

前两天做了这些健康的冰皮月饼。三色冰皮的灵感是来自我的可爱毛毛虫饼干食谱。这个配方是取自我的彩虹冰皮月饼，也是免用白油的。我觉得白油不健康，所以从来都不用它。在这个食谱，我用特级初榨橄榄油来取代，完全没影响冰皮嚼劲和柔软的质感。包裹的馅料是在广祥泰买的香港黑芝麻蓉。（一公斤包装 $12）。
