Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Place the glutinous rice flour in a large mixing bowl.
2
Gradually add the water to the flour, mixing with your hands until a soft, pliable dough forms. It should not be sticky.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Add water slowly, you might not need all of it. The dough should feel like play-doh.
3
If using, divide the dough into 2-3 portions and knead in a few drops of food coloring into each portion until uniformly colored.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Wear gloves if using vibrant food colors to avoid staining your hands.
4
Roll small pieces of the dough between your palms to form tiny balls, about 1 cm in diameter.
Aproximativ 20 min.
Nota bucătarului: Keep them uniform in size for even cooking.
5
Bring a medium pot of water to a rolling boil.
Aproximativ 5 min.
6
Gently drop the rice balls into the boiling water. Cook until they float to the surface and continue to boil for another 1-2 minutes.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pot.
7
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked rice balls to a bowl of cold water to prevent sticking and stop the cooking process.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: This step ensures the balls remain chewy and separate.
8
In a separate saucepan, combine the coconut milk, palm sugar, and salt.
Aproximativ 1 min.
9
If using, add the knotted pandan leaf to the coconut milk mixture.
Nota bucătarului: Pandan adds a lovely aromatic fragrance.
10
Heat the coconut milk mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the palm sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is hot, but not boiling.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Do not let the coconut milk boil vigorously as it can separate.
11
Drain the rice balls from the cold water and add them to the warm coconut milk mixture.
Aproximativ 1 min.
12
Simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Aproximativ 3 min.
13
Serve warm in small bowls, garnished with shredded fresh coconut meat if desired.
