Pandan Glutinous Rice Mua Chee (糯米糍)

 

After trying out the Chocolate Glutinous Rice Balls [Mua Chee] I made some with pandan flavour.  Just nice as snack for vegetarian diet.  My family will be on strict vegetarian diet for 9 days.
Recipe Source - Yum Yum Magazine No. 86 with modifications

Verdict - soft, chewy mua chee with lots of peanut filling.  You can make 1/2 portion, should be able to make about 18-20 pieces [depending on the size you prefer].

Ingredients

[makes about 36 pieces]

Peanut Filling  [mixed well] - 1/2 portion should be enough

500 gm peanuts - toasted, skin removed and grounded

50 gm white sesame seeds - toasted and grounded

120 gm castor sugar

Pandan Glutinous Rice Dough

350 gm glutinous rice flour

50 gm tapioca flour

2 tbsp sugar

2 tbsp oil

500 ml pandan water [Blend 6 blades of pandan leaves with 500 ml water.  Strained to get the pandan juice]. 

For coating

200 gm rice flour - stir fry over low heat for about 20 minutes or until very light. Remove to cool.

1. Mix all the dough ingredients in a steaming bowl.  Steam over high heat for 20 minutes.  Remove and transfer the dough into a greased plastic bag while still hot.
2. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic.
3. Divide the dough into small portions [about 30 gm] and put them into the prepared rice flour.
4. Flatten the dough and wrap in peanut filling.  Gather the edges to seal into a ball.  The ball should be well coated with the rice flour.
5. Place onto paper cases to serve.
