    Thank You for sharing this recipe. I’m from Singapore but never try making both myself. It’s so easily available in food court/ hawker centres/restaurants. Kueh Dadar is actually originate from Malaysia

    Kueh Dadar is not unique to Singapore. It is found in Indonesia and Malaysia and certainly did not originate from Singapore. While popularised as Nyonya Food, they did not create the dish. Fish Head Curry did come from Singapore though.

    In Malaysia also many people love fish head curry. But my version, maybe most of malaysian dont put lemon grass in curry. Kuih dadar also my favorite "kuih". In malaysia we also called it kuih gulung.. I love how beautiful your kuih is. It looks so nice… Mostly in many stall they just look basic… Yours look so nice!!.

    You are an amazing cook..I just had fish head curry for dinner a get days ago. Mine is a bit different . I had tamarind juice to it.. there are a few different ways of cooking this fish head curry . Some zhichar stall will steam the fish head before adding to the curry which I find is not good because the flavour of the fish head is not added to the curry..

    Marion I really like your recipes but I guess it’s best to leave out the country of origin in your titles especially if it is from Malaysia or Singapore. This two countries have very similar foods and it’s difficult to determine the origin.

    Marion, is there any taste difference between the darker cylinder palm sugar to the more yellow hockey puck shaped one?

    Another question is, how do people make those dough (as you may see in street food vendors) that they use to make crepes? So instead of a liquid they pour to make a crepe, it’s a droopy dough.

    The crêpe skin of traditional kueh dadar isn't smooth. It's filled with air holes to make it really light. Perhaps an ingredient is missing😅
