Onde-Onde 班兰糯米球 (Glutinous Rice Balls)

Here is some of the steps of preparing the onde-onde.

How did I fair in this onde-onde attempt?

Hmmm, the glutinous wasn't that bad, it is soft and chewy.

Well, as for the sugar syrup part, when I pop the onde-onde into my mouth, either I did not taste the sugar or you still can feel the whole bits of sugar in it...

Duh... so, in this aspect, I had yet to master the skill...

But being a first attempt, this recipe is not too bad, easy to make.

Hope you will have fun in trying out this recipe.:))

Ingredients:

250g glutinous rice flour

200ml pandan juice

100g grated white coconut (steam w some sea-salt)

250g palm sugar (finely chopped)

few drops of pandan paste

Method:
