Prep Time20 minutes mins
Cook Time10 minutes mins
Servings: 30 balls
- 1 cup coconut flakes (75 gr)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup water plus 1 tablespoon more (75 ml)
- 1 cup glutinous rice flour (130 gr)
- 1 tablespoon rice flour
- ½ cup water (125 ml), with pandan essence and green food coloring
- coconut sugar , I use less than ¼ cup (40 gr)
In a plate, add in coconut flakes, salt and water. Mix everything together. Microwave at max power for 2 minutes with 30 seconds intervals. Stir in each interval. Set aside.
In a bowl, add in both flours. Slowly pour bit by bit the pandan water and mix everything together until becomes a dough.
Take a thumb sized dough and make a cup shape, more or less. Then spoon in some coconut sugar. Pinch the seams to seal and gently roll it into a ball. Place it on an oiled cling film. Do the same to the rest of the dough.
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Carefully put some of the balls inside and cook until they start to float. Once they're floating, cook for another 1 minute. Take them out drain of water and place them in the coconut mixture that we've prepared earlier. Coat them with the coconut and place them in a serving plate.
Do the same to the rest of the balls. Enjoy!
