To get started with this recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can cook Yam Cake v2 using 22 ingredients and 20 steps. Here is how you cook it.
Choose yam that's light for its size. Lighter yam have less water and are more fluffy, powdery and fragrant. Make sure the peel is firm. Soft spots on the skin means the yam is starting to rot.
Keep yam in a pile of newspaper uncovered as yam needs plenty of ventilation. Otherwise, it will rot very quickly. Do not keep in refrigerator.
500 grams yam when peeled and trim will yield about 350 grams.
The yam must be fried and seasoned when it's hot in order to bring out the flavour of the yam.
Add seasonings on the ingredients when stir-frying and not when you are making the batter.
If a softer yam cake is preferred, leave the batter thinner when cooking on the stove. If you prefer a harder yam cake, then make the batter a bit thicker.
Wheat starch (tang mein flour) helps to make the cake softer in texture. Substitute with an equal amount of cornflour if its not available.
The process of stirring the batter into the yam mixture must be done slowly. If it is too dry, add more water. If it is too wet, stir longer to reduce the water.
Do not let the yam brown when frying or it will turn leathery.
After pouring the yam mixture onto the steaming tray, be sure to press it down with a spatula to push out any air that is trapped so the yam cake will be firm once steamed.
The steamed yam cake must be left to cool completely before it can be removed from the steaming tray.
