Le sister has been wanting to eat Fried Nian Gao but as it's towards the end of CNY period, everywhere is out of stock for nian gao
I went to a lot of places & finally found at Chinatown market but the nian gao was kind of moldy. The shop owner didn't want to sell it to me but eventually sold it to me at $5 (instead of $8 shown on the tag) after I assured him that I won't complain or make a big fuss of it since I'm just gonna fry it & not use it for offering to the deities. 
Instead of the traditional method of coating with batter (cos I don't have a good recipe of good batter) & deep fry (lazy), I use the puff pastry instead.
Cut the puff pastry, roll the nian gao in it & into the airfryer at 180* for 10 mins
and there it goes!
I also tried using popian skin.
But boom ... overflow cos the popiah skin a bit too small 😅I shall stick to using puff pastry or maybe frozen prata next time. Or if you have any good recipe of batter for deep frying, please share with me!
