Kuih Telinga Gajah

Kuih Telinga Gajah. Our nickname for this biscuit. Not sure what the chinese baker calls it. It is not a normal biscuit bevause it is spicy, not the Indian spiciness, also not purely chinese. It is mixture of chinese and indian spices.

Originally, only found in Sandakan, but can now be bought in Kota Kinabalu, although not as delicious as the one in Sandakan.
