Kuih Koci

I have eaten kuih koci before but they are not like this one. This kuih koci is made from black glutinous rice.

It has coconut flakes filling. It is fresh so it is very tasty. I bought it from a healthy food grocery shop located a few shops away from "Eat at J's cafe" in PJ. It is sold in limited quantities in bags of 5 for MYR 6.50 nett (MYR 1.30 nett each) so my friends and I bought 1 bag to share. I like it a lot so if I am ever in the area again, I will go and see whether or not they have this for sale on that day.

This is how it looks like before it was unwrapped. I ate one and took one home for my mother to try. She likes it a lot too.

  2. I love these kuehs but more often than not, it is hard to get really good ones like those in the old days. I love black glutinous rice dessert - have not had that for a long long time. No place where one can get that here. :(

    1. This kueh is one of the better ones but I seldom go to that area so don't know when I can get to eat it again.

  4. I only like the soft chewy outer part, not so much the grated coconut.
