Great things do come in small packages–such is true when it comes to Nyonya Kuih Pie Tee. Alluringly gorgeous in presentation and rank high in the taste and flavor department, Nyonya Kuih Pai Tee are virtuous snacks that showcase clean flavors and brilliant combination of fresh ingredients–it’s undeniably one of the most inventive and vividly luscious Nyonya creations.
Making Kuih Pie Tee is no small feat as it requires ample amount of patience and time. With its aesthetic so crisp, delicate, beautiful, the results are well worth the effort. The two-step process starts with the making of the cases or “top hats” with a metal mold, follow by the cooking of julienned jicama, carrot, and chopped shrimp. These ingredients are then assembled to form these eye candy treats.
Nyonya Kuih Pie Tee make a killer hor’deurves in any parties, be it a Malaysian party or an all-American schmooze fest. Everyone will marvel at the wow factor of these munchies.

I am new to your site and love what I see! This recipe looks so interesting! I do have some questions.
1. What is the size of the mold you use? Do you have any suggestions where I can get one?
2. Can the shells (hats) be prepared in advanced? If so, how far in advance? Do they require being in an air tight container to keep them crispy?
3. Because of allergy issues can either ground chicken or pork be subistuted for the shrimp?
Thanks sooooo much!

I bought the mold for 6 years already but never try to make it. Love to eat it but lazy to make it. Here in Penang easy to find the mold.
