Method
- Boil the sweet potato and yam for 3-5 mins until tender, but not mushy.
- Place a stick of sweet potato, chilled nian gao, and yam on a sheet of spring roll pastry.
- Fold the spring roll pastry over the ingredients to wrap them up.
- Brush a bit of egg white on the corner of the spring roll pastry to seal it.
- Air fry at 200°C for 4-5 mins or deep fry until golden-brown.
For the gula melaka sauce:
- Combine the palm sugar, pandan leaves, white sugar, and water in a pot over low heat. Bring it to a boil and keep stirring until all the sugar dissolves completely.
- Remove from heat and discard the pandan leaves. Add coconut cream on medium heat and stir until it thickens slightly.
- Drizzle it over the nian gao spring rolls to serve!
Tip: The sweet potato will soften faster than the yam, so you can keep checking on its firmness compared to the other two ingredients as they cook.
