- Here it is. My Ma Lai Go Recipe that is easy to make and tastes same as my favorite dim sum restaurants in Guangzhou, China. This cake recipe requires NO electric mixer. It's just eggs, brown sugar, yeast and a bunch of other ingredients that makes this Malay steamed sponge cake tasty!

Hi Wally
I am so proud of myself because yesterday, I followed your recipe n successfully made a ma lai go that looked exactly like yours!
It's an achievement because i am not good at steaming n havent had luck ever making anything with yeast!
Now, i realise it's the freshness of the yeast that is pretty crucial! I used individually packed yeast in a sachet with a faraway expiry date.
I find baking soda has a strong chemical taste so i halved it but that did not affect the airiness of the cake. Came out so soft n light.
And I too proofed the batter for 1.5 hours.
Only thing was, i notice the yeast smell was fairly strong.
But today, a day later, the yeast smell went down a lot. I am thinking what can be done to counteract this.
Maybe add 2 drops pandan essence (on top of using pandan water which i did).
And/or use some butter instead of oil. But then, that may not be ma lai go because traditional ma lai goh doesnt have butter.
Anyway, thank you v much for sharing.
My successful use of yeast has given me confidence to make cream filled doughnuts which i love n which are getting ridiculously expensive. 0:27
You did all the work, so you deserve all the credit 😀 And I should be thanking you for watching my videos 🙏
Hi again Wally
Loved the ma lai go so much, made it again. I added 2 drops good quality pandan essence and 3 drops vanilla essence n the yeast smell was gone! I used half butter half oil this round. Even more fragrant.
Thank you v much for your scrumptious and doable recipes.
Thank you for sharing this great recipe and sharing. Tried it today and it came out very well. Appreciate how you explained step by step. Thanks again. Wish you well.
that is one of my favorite cakes in dim sum. This taste better than the regular sponge cake.
Looks Good Wally... 👍👌thanks for sharing your recipe ✌😋👍
These look great, in fact can I use a bit of cane sugar partially for a slightly different flavour? Or does the different kinds of sugar will change the result of the final product?
Natural cane sugar will work fine Philip. But I believe it'll come out lighter brown 👍
Wally, I just tried this recipe. Thanks for sharing it. It turned out great. The cake had a wonderful rise, a great texture, and had great spring.
😀 Hello! Thank you for trying out my recipe. I’m glad you like it 😆 Take care 😀
your link to the recipe doesn't work?
Thanks so much!! Looks pretty simple to make…will try this weekend.😅
Very easy 😀
Another awesome video. I love Ma Lai Go. Can I omit the pandan leaves? Not sure how to buy.
Yeah fresh pandan leaves could be hard to find. There is pandan essence but it could be too strong. I’ve seen other recipes using vanilla extract, you can try it’s better than nothing 😃 Thank you for watching as always! Take care!
this is one of my favorite dish. can you do a video on black bean steamed pork ribs another popular dim sum dish?
Hey! That’s on the list I can’t promise that it’ll be soon as I have a looooong list but I promise I’ll get on it. Thanks again for watching as always 😃 Take care!
i just tried it pretty good thank you so much
You’re welcome AN 👍 Thank you for watching and commenting ✌️
Wally thanks for sharing the recipe. I had tried your recipe, it rises well , fluffy and springy but in the center
of the cake is firm and not as fluffy the whole cake? Please kindly correct my mistakes, thank you.
Hello Pak 😀 Sounds like it was overcooked if the center was more firm. I suggest steaming shorter period or lower the heat. Do the chopstick test like shown in video, about 5 minutes before you think it's done. If it comes out slightly moist with a few crumbs stuck to it then should be ready. This cake is perfectly fine, even if it's slightly underdone 😀
Do let me know if you have any other questions 👍
Would be good to write list of ingredients needed either at beginning or end of demo!
Hi. I really enjoy your videos. I found frozen pandan leaves in a Thai grocery store here in South Florida -only $1.49. The smell from the leaves brewing is a bit strong so next time I will do it outside. I did freeze into ice cubes, some of the leftover pandan water. I used a round cheesecake pan with removable side and it worked perfectly. Anyway I enjoyed the taste and even though a small amount of pandan, you can taste it but it goes well with the sugar and other ingredients. Keep the videos coming
Hey Steven, how's it going? I'm glad it worked out for you. $1.49 is not a bad price. And yup cheesecake pan will work perfectly. No need for bamboo steamer. Thanks for watching and commenting Steven, take care and stay healthy 👍
hello, what other flour can i use instead of wheat?
I'm not sure 🤔 I’ve never used gluten free flour. But you can try 🙏
Looks good & yummy 🙏🙏❤️💕❤️🙏🙏
Recipe link not working. Ingredients list pls
Hi,just tried making Ma Lai Goh using your recipe. It’s delicious. However, the top part didn’t turn out as smooth as your Ma lai goh. 🙏🙏🙏
Ah Shirley, water must’ve formed on top of lid while streaming and dripped on top of cake the whole time. When you put lid on just wipe bottom side of lid dry. You might need to do a few times depending how much water forms 😃😆
Ok,noted. Thanks for the tips. Will definitely try again and remember to wipe the top of the lid. 1/2 of the Malai Goh has already been eaten.😋
Here to support you😼
can't find the recipe on your website
Oops, my mistake. I'll get working on it 😀
I love my Dim Sum!
Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching and commenting 😃
I hope you get a gazzillion subs Wally.
Thank you so much! 😆
Is this the same as the steam custard rolls
Hello 😀 Not really, it's more close to a regular baked cake that you can put frosting on.
@@WallyCooksEverything I'm struggling to find a recipe for rolled steamed custard cake from dim sum. Do you know where to find one?
Hi 😀 Do you mean steamed custard bun? Should be a recipe for everything on RUclips these days 😂 It's possible that what you're looking for is called something else. Is there another name that you know of?
Digging this dim sum Thursday!
👍👍👍💜💜💜💜💜
