682 Min Jiang Kueh Review: IG-Worthy Min Jiang Kueh With Orh Nee, Green Tea, And Coconut Fillings

Being stuffed with boldly coloured fillings, 682 Min Jiang Kueh ignited a new found love for this traditional dish among the Hougang breakfast crowd. 12 Kaya Toast Stalls In Singapore To Get Your Traditional Breakfast Fix Food at 682 Min Jiang Kueh By this point, the internet’s obsession with orh nee is almost a given and it’s a sin to not begin this review with this almighty yam paste. The aromatic and nutty Yam ($1.50) min jiang kueh had a silky smooth texture, and bore resemblance to the orh nee bread filling from Roti Bakery .

The paste itself was also slightly sticky and made for some short-lived fun before you get texture fatigue from all the chewing. Moving along the colour wheel, I was convinced the Coconut ($1.20) might actually glow in the dark.

Encased in a fluffy brown pillow, the desiccated coconut was soaked in orange sugar that contributed to the bright hue. The sweet crunch of the coconut flakes complemented the chewy exterior well. Do ensure you are prepared to catch the fillings that seemed too eager to escape from the pancake.

Despite the dark green paste of the Green Tea ($1.30) that strongly suggested the use of food colouring, I still went ahead to order this pancake for the sole reason of adding more colour to my IG feed. The paste bore light bitter green tea flavours and a bit of strange aftertaste, which begged to be washed down with a drink. Their Black Sesame ($1.50) taste housed a smooth and sweet sesame paste, which may have made for a few pleasant bites—till it gets too jelak.

I tend to prefer a grittier and slightly bitter black sesame paste that maintains the natural aroma of the seeds. There is no better standardised test for a min jiang kueh stall than their Peanut ($1.20) , which is the OG of all min jiang kueh fillings.

The salty peanut fillings had a good mix of powdery and crunchy bits that were distinct from the pillowy soft exterior. Paying homage to tradition, the stall carries Peanut Slice ($1.20) , which is the more traditional form of MJK.

Instead of a fluffy exterior, it was thin and a tad tough to bite. Munchi Delights Review: Chunky Charcoal And Matcha Min Jiang Kueh At $1.20 Each Ambience at 682 Min Jiang Kueh Located at a 15-minute walk from Hougang MRT Station , Ming Ji Coffee Shop is extremely popular during breakfast hours.
