How to make sticky rice cakes

Step 1

Firstly, soak the mung beans for about 3-5 hours to allow them to swell; they will become softer when steamed.

After the mung beans have sprouted, steam them until fully cooked. Allow the green beans to cool before either using a blender or grinding them finely in a mortar.

Mix the mung bean filling with a bit of cooking oil, sugar, and fresh coconut. Remember to season it to taste, adjusting it according to your family's preferences.

Once the mung beans are evenly mixed with the spices, shape them into small, bite-sized balls and place them on a separate plate.

Step 2

Combine glutinous rice flour with regular rice flour, add 3 teaspoons of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Gradually pour water into the flour bowl and knead with 1 teaspoon of cooking oil until the dough is no longer sticky. Allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes.

Divide the dough into small balls, shape them into rounds, and you can add a bit of cooking oil to prevent sticking. Flatten each dough ball, place the prepared mung bean filling in the center, and knead the dough evenly to encase the filling.

Step 3

Steam the cakes for about 10-15 minutes. For delicious cakes, during steaming, be sure to wipe off any condensation on the lid to keep the cakes dry. You can use banana leaves or foil underneath the cakes to prevent sticking.

Once the cakes are cooked, take them out and roll them with the prepared mung bean filling, ensuring an even coating around the cake to create an outer layer.

Finally, present the mung bean sticky rice cake on a plate, and it's ready to be enjoyed.
