Making Putu Piring

I tried making putu piring as I have good quality gula melaka from my trip there. I also has a delicious putu piring in Melaka that is rice with gula melaka.

This inspire me to find out how to make my own putu piring. The outcome is that at the 1st few bites, its delicious, cause I stuff it with a lot of gula melaka. However I lack certain basic utensils like small bowl and cloth. Thus my putu piring is a bit dry. I will definitely try this again when I have all the utensils.
