Homemade Pumpkin Cake Recipe

Have 2 large pumpkin at home for a few days already. It's time to do something about it. So, I decided to made Pumpkin cake for our breakfast tomorrow since my husband likes it.

Ingredients:
1kg       Pumpkin
300gm  Rice Flour  
150gm  Corn Flour
One handful of Dried Shitake Mushroom (or more)
100gm  Dried shrimp
1 piece  Chicken fillet (Breast meat)
4 Cups  Water
2 Tbsp  Garlic (minced, for frying)
One       Big Onion (minced)
Cooking oil

Seasoning:
White pepper, Salt, Light sauce
*** don't put sugar because pumpkin already sweet

For Garnishing, if you like (I didn't put)
Spring Onion, Fried Shallots and Chillies

Methods:
1. Cut the pumpkin into cubes, and steam till soft.
2. Mix the Rice flour and Corn Flour with 4 cups of water.
3. Soak dried shrimp and dried Shitake Mushroom with water. Drain out the water, cut the shrimp small and the Shitake mushroom cut strips, set aside. Cut the Chicken Fillet into strips and then dice it.
3. Heat oil and fry dried shrimp into a little yellowish, then add the minced Garlic and onion. Continue to stir fry and add the Chicken breast meat.
4. Add in the cooked pumpkin. I did not smash it nor blend it because I prefer my pumpkin cake with with a little pumpkin chunk inside. In fact, after much frying and stirring, all pumpkin chunk cannot be found anymore :(
5. Add on the seasoning, salt, pepper, light sauce or any other seasoning you want to add on. I add the Hao Chi seasoning just to make it taste better...
6. The ingredients should be a little big more salty then usual because after add on the flour mixture, the taste will be diluted a lot.
7. Add in the flour mixture and continue to stir. The mixture will be thicken under the flame.. Must continue to stir and make sure that all the ingredients are well mixed.
8. Scope the mixture into cups or tray. Then steam for 25min. If your mixture are not too cook, then you may need to steam for a little longer.


Ready to serve.
