Recipe: Sesame Balls, Jin Dui 芝麻球




This is truly a recipe for togetherness! It is a perfect dessert for the whole family...hand in hand, we work together.  Sweet family bonding time aGAin...and I'm looking forward for another...aGAin...

Ingredients:
  1. 180g glutinous rice flour
  2. 60g sugar
  3. 1/2 tsp baking powder 
  4. +/-120g warm water
  5. 5 tbsp raw sesame seeds
  • Mix ingredients 1-3.
  • Add ingredient 4, mix and knead to smooth dough.
  • Divide and roll to 20 small balls (+/-18g each).
  • Slightly wet the ball, roll and compact with sesame seeds.
  • Fill a pot with oil, sufficient to cover the balls.
  • Medium heat +/-130C, drop and leave the balls to fry.
  • Once floating (around 2 min), press gently against pot (I used folk). 
  • Repeat pressing a few times till lightly browned (about 4 min).
  • Increase heat to +/-165C, fry till golden brown (2-3 min). 
Notes:
  1. Do not overload the pot, balls will expand in size.
  2. Do try with red bean paste filling... next round.
