Steps to make Red Velvet Huat Kueh:
- Prepare huat kueh. - - In a large mixing bowl, add in eggs and sugar. - - Using a hand mixer, whisk until well combined and the sugar has dissolved. - - In another bowl, add flour, salt and baking powder. - - Stir to combine well.
- Gradually pour in about 1/3 of the beetroot juice into the egg mixture while still mixing. - - Gradually sieve in about 1/3 of the flour mixture into the egg mixture while still mixing. - - Repeat the alternating process until everything is incorporated. - - Gradually pour in the oil while still mixing. - - Lastly, add in vanilla paste.
- Mix to combine well. Mix, mix, mix. - - The batter should be glossy and smooth. - - Prepare a steamer. - - Line muffin tins with cupcake liners.
- Making life easier, use a sorbet scoop to transfer the batter into the cupcake liners. - - You should get 6 equal portions (I am a bit OCD, so I divides and measured out 6 equal portions). - - Steam until the kueh blossom and pass the skewer test. - - Skewer test is when you insert a skewer into the kueh, it comes out clean.
- Remove from steamer and set aside to cool slightly, about 30 mins. - - Prepare cream cheese fillings while steaming. - - In a large bowl, add cream cheese, sugar, cream, lemon juice and zest. - - Using a hand mixer, whisk everything together until well combine.
- The mixture should be light, fluffy and the sugar should dissolve. - - There shouldn't be any grainy touch of sugar to the mixture. - - Transfer into a piping bag and set aside chilled until ready to use.
- Assemble the huat kueh. - - Using a cupcake corer, remove the center core of the kueh, but leave the tip in tact. - - Pipe the cream cheese fillings into the core. - - Cover the core with the tip. - - Repeat the process for the remaining kueh. - - You can serve these at room temperature or chilled. - - I prefer mine chilled.
