Ingredients
- 250 g water milled rice flour
- 50 g plain flour

- 210 ml hot water
- 5 g instand yeast

Instructions
- Dissolve sugar in hot water and set aside to cool down to warm or room temperature (under 38 degree C)
- Mix rice flour, flour and yeast in a large mixing bowl and stir in sugar liquid. Combine and mix well.

- Brush the moulds with oil and scoop the liquid to full 80% full. Bring water to boil in wok and then steam the cakes for 20 minutes over high fire.
