Apam Keladi - Jom ke dapur

It's blessing in disguise .... sort of. When i could not be in front of my computer as much as i used to(my Mac Mini is still at the clinic), i started to be friendly with my kitchen again. Saaayang kitchen.

Got this recipe from a friend's book - One Publisher.

Something different and tastes good.

I only add 3 drops of the colouring, add more if you want darker.
