About Nonya rice dumpling

Nonya Rice Dumpling, or "Kee Chang," is a traditional delicacy from Peranakan cuisine, blending Chinese and Malay culinary influences. Typically wrapped in bamboo or pandan leaves, this dumpling is crafted from glutinous rice mixed with a fragrant combination of coconut milk and natural pandan essence. The center features a savory filling, such as minced pork or mushrooms, flavored with spices like coriander, garlic, and shallots. Known for its rich taste and chewy texture, each dumpling balances sweet and salty flavors. While glutinous rice makes it energy-dense, the inclusion of proteins from the filling can support a more balanced intake. Some recipes use less oil to reduce fat content. However, it’s important to enjoy Nonya Rice Dumplings in moderation, as the heavy use of coconut milk and salted fillings may add saturated fats or sodium. Perfect for festive occasions, it's both a culinary treat and a cultural homage.
