Nota & Tips (Notes & Tips)
- Tekstur Gebu: Pastikan nasi dikisar sehingga halus mulus untuk mendapatkan tekstur apam yang lembut dan tidak kasar.
(Ensure the rice is blended until perfectly smooth to get a soft, non-gritty texture.) - Yis Segar: Pastikan yis masih aktif; jika adunan tidak berbuih selepas 1 jam, kemungkinan yis sudah mati.
(Ensure the yeast is active; if the batter doesn’t bubble after 1 hour, the yeast may be expired.) - Warna-warni: Anda boleh membahagikan adunan kepada beberapa bahagian dan letakkan pewarna kesukaan anda.
(You can divide the batter and add your preferred food coloring for a vibrant look.)
