For 10 to 12 coconut balls
For the stuffing:
- 50 g shelled mung beans (yellow in colour)
- 40 g grated coconut 30g caster sugar
For the dough:
- 250g glutinous rice flour
- 20 cl of hot water
- 50g sugar
Preperation
- Preparation: 30 mins
- Cooking: 1 hour
- Cook the mung beans for 45 minutes in boiling water.
- Finely mix the drained mung beans with the sugar and the coconut.
- Form small balls with this dough, about 1.5 or 2 cm in diameter. In a bowl, mix the glutinous rice flour with the sugar and boiling water. Mix with a spoon then finish working the dough by hand. It must be flexible and manageable.
- Take balls of rice dough, flatten them into a disc and surround the balls with yellow beans. Close well to have a round white ball. There is approximately a 10 g ball of stuffing and a 35 g ball of sticky rice dough.
- Shape about ten coconut balls. Steam them for 15 minutes and roll them in grated coconut as soon as they are cooked.
- Enjoy the coconut pearls immediately and reheat them for 1 minute in the microwave before serving them. Be careful, the coconut balls harden quickly. It is not recommended to do them too far in advance.
Tip: To prevent the dough from sticking, simply add rice flour to the glutinous rice flour (ex: 150 g glutinous rice flour and 50 g rice flour) and add water COLD, little by little, until the right consistency.
