Purple sweet potato rice balls (sugar water)
Overview
Ever since I ate taro ball rice dumplings in Xiamen a few years ago, I have never forgotten them. But the ones in Shenzhen are not only expensive, but there are very few rice balls in one portion, so I might as well make it myself😊 Since this is my first time, I will try it with purple sweet potatoes today! I won’t write much about the sugar water part. You can mix different sugar water according to your personal preference, such as: coconut milk sago water, brown sugar ginger syrup, or even milk tea😁😁

Ingredients
Steps
-
Wash, peel and cut the purple sweet potatoes in half (for easy steaming)
-
Steam in water and crush with a spoon
-
While hot, add sugar and sweet potato (tapioca) flour
-
Knead into a smooth dough (if it is too dry, add a little water little by little)
-
Sprinkle a little sweet potato flour on the cutting board and roll the dough into thin strips
-
Then cut it into finger-sized pieces, sprinkle in a little sweet potato flour, roll it around to prevent sticking, and then put it in the freezer for half an hour.
-
Pour water into the pot, bring to a boil, add frozen rice balls, wait until the rice balls float and cook for 5 minutes.
-
Take out the rice balls and pour them into cold water. This will make the texture more elastic!
-
Then you can add the powdered balls to your favorite sugar water and enjoy slowly
