班兰烘糕 Kueh Bakar Pandan

After trying many recipe books, I still experience instances with failed outcomes despite strictly following everything as listed in the book. Generally, when one pays for published recipe books, it is expected to provide one with the failed proof results. From my experience by self taught through many store bought recipe books, not all the recipe works. 

虽然尝试采用了许多食谱参考书籍，而尽管我一一跟随着食谱里的步骤来做，我还是有遇到失败的时候。一般上，人们一旦出钱采购市上出版贩卖的食谱书籍，心中想必都会认定做出来的成品的成功率。我经过了数年从食谱书籍自学所领悟到的结论是，并不是本本书籍里的食谱都是零失败的。

Hence, whenever I pick up a recipe among my collection of books to try on, I would choose books from authors with reliable success rate. Here is one of the tested and proven recipe from Andrew Kow's "Malaysian Kuehs and Snacks".

因此，每当我要从众多的书籍里挑出新食谱尝试，一定会选择给予最高成功率作者的书籍来制做。这是一道简易即包成功的传统糕粿食谱取自于许孙祥的‘粿香满堂’。
