Ingredients

Scale
  • 150 g glutinous rice flour
  • 20 g sugar
  • 30 g cornstarch
  • 30 g cooking oil
  • 300 ml milk
  • Roasted soybean powder, as needed (for coating)

Instructions

  1. Combine glutinous rice flour, sugar, and cornstarch in a large bowl.
  2. Add cooking oil and milk; whisk until completely smooth and lump-free.
  3. Pour the batter into a non-stick frying pan over low heat.
  4. Cook, stirring constantly with a silicone spatula to prevent sticking and lumps.
  5. Keep stirring as the mixture thickens until it forms a smooth, elastic dough that no longer sticks to the pan or spatula, then turn off the heat.
  6. Remove the dough from the pan and gently stretch it several times to develop elasticity.
  7. Once cool enough to handle, roll the dough into a log and cut into bite-sized pieces.
  8. Toss the mochi pieces in roasted soybean powder until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
