Step 4. Coat the inside of a dish (like shown below) with a thin layer of oil, and pour in the thickened milk. Once the milk has settled evenly, put in the refrigerator.

Step 5. Once the milk has cooled and solidified, you can turn the dish upside down on a cutting board to remove.

Step 8. Then, dip in the whisked egg.

Step 9. Finally, coat with a layer of bread crumbs.

Step 10. Heat oil on the stove (enough to submerge the breaded milk). Place in a few of the breaded milk rectangles (the oil should bubble, that means it is hot enough).

Step 11. When the surface is golden, remove it, set on a paper towel to cool, and enjoy!

TIPS:

1. In addition to the original flavor, you can add a small amount of matcha powder or cocoa powder to give an extra pop of flavor.

2. The refrigerated and cut milk cake can be eaten directly, coated in coconut.

3. When you fry, you must use low heat. The oil temperature should not be too high, otherwise, the milk cake will be scorched as soon as it is put in.

4. Don’t fry too much at a time. Since the fried milk will become soft if you don’t eat it on time.
