Mochi

Mochi balls - anyone!
Ingredients:
15g plain flour
20g rice flour
40g glutinous flour
30g sugar
135g milk
3 tbsp oil


Filling : Depend on individual. I'm using homemade red beam paste
and mung beam paste for filling, really yummy.


Cook glutinous flour : 20g glutinous flour wrap with aluminum foil put in the
300°F oven for 15-20mins. These cooked flour is for
dusting and to handle the stickiness of the dough while
wrapping the dough with the filling.


Methods :
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk until everything cooperated then sieved it until no lump in the batter.

Steam the mixture for about 30mins, set aside and cool it. While the dough still warm, knead it until a soft and smooth dough form, covered in a container and set it in the fridge overnight.

Divide the dough into 10 equal portion and fill with the prepared filling then chill it in the fridge. The Mochi balls ready to taste!
