This amigurumi was inspired by a local traditional confection in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, the kueh salat. Also known as kueh seri muka and pulut serikaya, it is a two-layered steamed confection comprising of a bottom layer of steamed glutinous rice flavoured with coconut milk and pandan, and an upper layer of silky custard made of eggs, coconut milk and pandan. Although a plain snack, it is an aromatic harmony of contrasts, with the savoury, sticky rice layer and the sweet, soft custard layer.
