Kuih serimuka

(Seri muka, Kuih salat, Sri muka, Kuih seri muka, Kueh salat, Kueh sarlat, Putri salat)

Serimuka is a kuih variety that consists of two separate layers. The bottom is made with glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk, while the top layer is a vibrant green coconut milk custard that is flavored and colored with pandan leaves. The dessert is often associated with Peranakan Chinese and has been listed as one of Malaysian heritage foods.


Seri muka is traditionally served on special occasions, and similar varieties are also found in Indonesia, where they are known as putri salat.
