I think you can get nian gao easily in your china town. <BR/>But for the fried ones..I suspect it's a local delicacy.MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03254872153587385919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343723790419212560.post-50522374905387746152008-01-17T13:41:00.000+08:002008-01-17T13:41:00.000+08:00Now you are making me crave something I haven't ev...Now you are making me crave something I haven't even seen before! How weird is that? :)<BR/><BR/>I'll try to find the fried nian gao with sweet potato. It would help if you could give me the (phonetic) name or just type it in Chinese characters, if you can, and I'll print it.

Nian Gaos are much more sticky. <BR/><BR/>Fenix.. I am sure there are lotsa these in your local Chinatown. I took a close-up that's why they look big, but actually they are quite small. They come in all shapes and sizes nowadays. The traditional ones are just round and wrapped in leaves. <BR/>And like what Keropok mentioned, the are cut in slices dipped in flour batter and fry with slices of sweetpotato.. and yam :)<BR/>It's available all year round here, so if you happen to be in KL/PJ, you can try it out from the hawker stalls.MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03254872153587385919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343723790419212560.post-21023402552338706912008-01-17T00:35:00.000+08:002008-01-17T00:35:00.000+08:00it's the time of the year to eat them again!mum wi...it's the time of the year to eat them again!<BR/><BR/>mum will fry them in between two slices of sweet potato!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07080519535469962444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343723790419212560.post-2980107925560882132008-01-15T23:30:00.000+08:002008-01-15T23:30:00.000+08:00Are they like caramel or toffee?

I'll see if I can find it next time I'm in Chinatown. Those look quite large. Do they make it in smaller sizes?<BR/><BR/>Take care :).Fénix - Bostonscapeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08656859345629639973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343723790419212560.post-81154204545202674352008-01-15T11:10:00.000+08:002008-01-15T11:10:00.000+08:00How interesting!
