Ingredients
- 6 fresh strawberries
- 1 cup red bean paste
- ¾ cup mochiko
- 4 tablespoons sugar
- ¾ cup water
- cornstarch for dusting
Instructions
- Rinse the strawberries and remove green leaves. Then dry them completely.
- Divide the red bean paste into 6 balls, then flatten each ball out.
- Wrap each strawberry with the red bean paste. Set them aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together mochiko, sugar, and water.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap loosely. Microwave at full power for 2 minutes.
- Take it out and mix it with a wet spatula. Cover and microwave for 30 more seconds until the dough becomes slightly translucent.
- Transfer the cooked dough onto the cornstarch-dusted parchment paper. Sprinkle a thin layer of cornstarch onto the dough.
- Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and flatten each one into a circular shape.
- Place each red bean paste-covered strawberry in the center of each mochi wrapper. Make sure the pointing end is positioned at the center of the wrapper.
- Pinch the four corners of the mochi wrapper, and then pinch the remaining corners together.
- Tap the bottom of the mochi with cornstarch. Brush the assembled green tea mochi with a brush gently to remove excess cornstarch.
- Repeat this process for the rest of the dough and fillings. Serve and enjoy!
