橙薯椰糖椰丝红龟粿 Orange Sweet Potato Shredded Coconut Ang Ku Kuih

There was a bowl of steamed orange sweet potato in the fridge, so I decided to make this nyonya kuih. 

I like all kind of nyonya kuihs. This is one of my favorite nyonya kuihs, whether it is stuffed with shredded coconut, peanuts, or green bean paste, I like them all!😄

冰箱里有一碗已经蒸好的橙番薯，所以我决定用来做这个娘惹糕。

我喜欢各类的娘惹糕。 这是我喜欢的娘惹糕之一，无论是椰丝、花生还是绿豆沙馅，我都喜欢！😄
