About this dish

Pineapple tart is a small, bite-size tart filled or topped with pineapple jam, commonly found throughout different parts of Southeast Asia such as Malaysia, Indonesia (kue nastar), Brunei and Singapore in various forms. The pineapple tart may have been invented in the 16th century by the Peranakan people living in Malacca. This is around the time the pineapple, a fruit native to South America, was introduced to Asia and the Malay Peninsula by Portuguese merchants.
