Sumptuous durian pancakes

FORMER air stewardess Chng Lee Lee had always wondered why she could only have lovely durian desserts in Hong Kong even though the best durians were grown in Malaysia.

“There’s no doubt about it. Our country has the most delicious durians as they have the loveliest aroma, but one can hardly find durian desserts here,” said the self-confessed foodie, who related her “love at first bite” experience with the Hong Kong durian pancake — a bite-sized dessert with durian and velvety cream wrapped in a thin crepe.
