Detailed Steps for Making Purple Sweet Potato Glutinous Rice Balls
Prepare two purple sweet potatoes.
Peel the purple sweet potatoes.
Cut the purple sweet potatoes into thin slices.
Place the purple sweet potato slices in a plate. Boil water in a pot, then reduce heat to low and steam the sweet potato slices in the pot for 10 minutes.
Remove the steamed purple sweet potato slices, place them in a glass bowl, and mash them into a paste using a spoon.
Add 3 teaspoons of granulated sugar.
Add 1 teaspoon of glutinous rice flour. Then, while still warm, knead the mixture into 5 round balls with your hands.
Steam the balls in a pot for another 2 minutes.
Sprinkle some desiccated coconut on a plate, roll the purple sweet potato balls in the coconut. Use chocolate sauce to draw musical notes on the plate, then use tomato sauce to create some dots. Finally, scatter the purple sweet potato glutinous rice balls irregularly on the plate, and you’re done!
