Detailed Steps for Cooking Five-Color Nutritious Glutinous Rice Cakes
Steam yam, potato, and purple sweet potato in a steamer for 25 minutes, then peel and mash them to make yam, potato, and purple sweet potato puree. Put a carrot in a blender with a little water to make carrot powder, resulting in four colors. Set aside the matcha powder.
Mix the yam, potato, purple sweet potato puree, and carrot powder. Put each puree into glutinous rice flour and mix with hot milk to form small round balls for filling. Add powdered sugar according to sweetness preference, some may not need it as they are naturally sweet.
Steam the filled balls for 5 minutes. This is the finished product. It’s best to use a measuring cup to ensure uniform size.
For the filling: Mix sesame powder with crushed peanuts, a small amount of powdered sugar, and a little salad oil.
These are the delicious and visually appealing glutinous rice cakes.
Even little animals want to eat them. Haha.
