Grease a plate to prevent sticking, arrange the glutinous rice balls one by one on the plate, be careful not to place them too close together, otherwise they will stick together after steaming and cannot be separated.

Scoop them one by one into the folded aluminum foil bowls using a spoon.

Take out the pastry ingredients from the refrigerator, cut them into round slices, not too thick, with a thickness of about 3-4mm, carefully cover each glutinous rice ball with a slice.
