Instructions
- Put 1 cup of glutinous rice flour into the bowl.
- Then, add 1.5 tablespoons of sugar into the flour and mix it well.
- Pour ½ cup of warm/hot water into the flour mixture. Mix the flour with a spoon. (If you use hot water, be careful when pouring the water. The dough is hot, keep mixing with a spoon until it is not too hot and you can use your hand to knead the dough. Besides, when you use hot boiling water, you may have a hard time handling the sticky dough, try to use 7 tablespoons of hot boiling water instead.)
- The dough is a little bit sticky and don't worry about adding extra flour. (Remember to knead the dough while it’s still hot/warm. And, use the back of your fingers to knead the dough. Or, dip some oil on your hand or fingers when you knead the dough.)
- After that, pour 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil into the dough and continue to knead the dough until it's not sticky. (I like to separate 2 times by pouring the oil. Therefore, I add ½ tablespoon of vegetable oil at a time and continue to knead the dough.)
- Next, roll the dough into an elongated shape.
- Roughly divide the dough into 6 pieces.
- Roll the pieces into 6 balls.
- Scoop a tablespoon full of red bean paste and roll it into a ball. Repeat this step and roll 6 red bean paste balls.
- Use your palm to press and flatten the flour dough.
- Then, use fingers to flatten the side. Make sure the middle of the dough is thicker than the side. And, place the red bean paste filling in the middle of the dough.
- Fold and roll the dough with red bean paste filling into a ball. Repeat and finish 6 of them.
- After, use your palm to press the dough with filling slightly.
- Spray some oil into the non-stick pan and turn on a small/ low fire. Pan fry both sides of the sticky rice cake with red bean paste and spray some water (squeeze the spray water bottle 5 times or add 1 tablespoon of water), then cover the lid for 5 minutes. After that, flip the other side pan fry and cover the lid for another 5 minutes.
Notes
- Add glutinous rice flour and sugar into a bowl and mix it well. Then, pour (warm/hot) water into the flour mixture. Mix it and knead into a dough.
- If you use hot water, be careful when pouring the water. The dough is hot, keep mixing with a spoon until it is not too hot and you can use your hand to knead the dough.
- Besides, when you use hot boiling water, you may have a hard time handling the sticky dough, try to use 7 tablespoons of hot boiling water instead.
- When you knead the dough, it’s a little bit sticky. Don’t worry about adding extra flour. Adding vegetable oil will help. Separate 2 times and pour the oil into the dough. Continue to knead the dough until it’s not sticky.
- Use your palms to flatten the flour dough and use fingers to flatten the sides. Make sure the middle of the dough is thicker.
- Put the filling, fold the dough and roll into a ball. Use the palm slightly to press the ball. Remember don’t flatten too much because the filling will come out.
- Spray some oil into the non-stick pan and turn on a small/low fire. Pan fry both sides and cover with the lid for 5 minutes each side. Spray some water (1 tablespoon of water or squeeze 5 times of water spray bottle into the pan when pan fry each side.)
