It is egg sized and the glutinous rice flour skin is often dyed green using the juice of pandan leaves with a coating of freshly grated desiccated coconut. The inside of the Ondeh Ondeh (椰丝球) is filled with gula melaka fried sweet desiccated coconut. It cost only S$0.50 each and tasted even better with the chewy glutinous rice and juicy sweet coconuts paired with a cup of less sweet milk tea. Sad to mention, this is only but a dream now.
The name Ondeh Ondeh originated from Indonesia, meaning round or sphere shaped. The filling inside is usually of two variety, namely molten gula malacca (Palm sugar) or grated coconut fried with palm sugar. Between the two, I preferred the coconut version as it offered both texture and sweetness.
PS - As of the writing of this post, the shop had closed and the building demolished. So this would be my last post on Ondeh Ondeh unless I find myself a worthwhile alternative. Till then...

Coconut Oat Pancakes
These light and fluffy Coconut Oat Pancakes, with their sweet tropical flavour make a deliciously cheering breakfast on a wet, grey (and rather chill) Summer day!
Ingredients (makes 4 pancakes):
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup whole rolled oats
1/4 desiccated coconut
1/2 cup plain flour
2 tablespoons demerara sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 large egg
1/2 cup Oat Milk
1/2 teaspoon Homemade Vanilla Extract
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Melt butter in a small saucepan, over a low flame.
Spoon whole rolled oats in a mortar, and grind thoroughly with the pestle. Add desiccated coconut, grinding again until well-combined. Spoon oat and coconut mixture into a medium bowl.
Add plain flour, demerara sugar and baking powder. Give a good stir.
Dig a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, and break in the egg. Pour in Oat Milk and Vanilla Extract. Give a good stir, gradually adding melted butter until well but just blended.
Cover with a tea towel, and allow to rest, at least half an hour.
Melt a little of the butter in a large, flat, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Spoon as many ladles of pancake batter as you can in the skillet, spacing them a little as they will grow. When bubble start forming on the edges of the pancakes, wait a couple of minutes, and flip pancakes on the other side. Cook, a couple of minutes, then transfer to serving plate keeping them warm. Repeat, adding a little butter to the pan between each batch, until you have four beautiful pancakes!
Serve Coconut Oat Pancakes warm, topped with Manuka Honey Mango or other fresh fruit.

Desiccated coconut is a fresh coconut that has been shredded or flaked and dried. Typically, it is not that sweet in taste. However, it can be more precise to call it as a less dry sweetened flakes. Moreover, it passed the standards of the prestigious Quality Standard test making it superior in terms of chemical and microbiological superiority as well as in ensuring its purity. The aroma and natural flavour of the coconut remains in its flesh for it undergone the drying and grounding only into a fine parched coconut without the use of sweeteners or additives.

Farewell Ondeh Ondeh (椰丝球), I am going to miss putting you into my mouth. The block where the bakery was located had been torn down to make way for a new multi-function complex and the owner of the bakery had decided to retire. No more cheap and good palm sugar sweetened desiccated coconut filled glutinous rice balls to snack on. :( The triangle piece is the Steamed Tapioca/Cassava Cake (蒸木薯糕) or Kueh Ubi Kayu in Malay. It similar to the Kueh Bingka Ubi but is steamed instead of baked.
