Purple sweet potato glutinous rice balls made with wine and glutinous rice

Overview

This month is really busy. The end of the month is even more complicated. I cooked a lot of dishes some time ago and I didn’t even have time to write them down. I ate some for lunch today and quickly sorted them out

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare a few fresh purple potatoes, wash them and remove the skins

   

2. 2 Cut into thick pieces and steam in a pot over high heat

   

3. 3 Prepare an appropriate amount of glutinous rice flour. Today there are two ways to make it, so there will be more glutinous rice flour

   

4. 4 Add appropriate amount of warm water and knead with your hands into a smooth dough

   

5. 5 Use a spoon to crush the steamed purple sweet potato into a puree, then knead it with the other half of the glutinous rice flour into a purple sweet potato dough

   

6. 6 Sprinkle a little glutinous rice flour on a board, and roll the purple sweet potato dough into even small balls

   

7. 7 Pour an appropriate amount of water into the pot and bring to a boil, add an appropriate amount of rock sugar, add the rolled purple sweet potato balls and cook until cooked

   

8. 8 Add the fermented rice wine, [bought from outside] and cook for four to five minutes

   

9. 9 Beat an egg and pour it evenly into the pot. [Remember at this time, the heat must be low. Do not stir the eggs immediately after they are put into the pot.]

   

10. 10 Just shape it into egg droplets like this, otherwise the whole soup in the pot will turn into paste, which is not good at all

    

11. 11 Pour in appropriate amount of tapioca flour to thicken

    

12. 12 Cook for another minute and it’s ready to serve

    

13. 13 When eating, sprinkle a little dried osmanthus or osmanthus honey to make it more delicious

    

14. 14 In fact, white dumplings can also be used, but I think purple sweet potato ones are more attractive. Of course, pumpkin dumplings can also be used...

    

15. 15 Now let’s start another method of making purple sweet potato crystal glutinous rice balls. Knead the purple sweet potato dough into purple sweet potato balls that are one size smaller than the glutinous rice balls

    

16. 16 Take the white dough, roll it into a round ball and flatten it, then put in the freshly rolled purple sweet potato balls [make it as thin as possible to make it easier to color later]

    

17. 17 Wrap it well and roll it into a ball. If you are making a lot, cover it with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out

    

18. 18 Boil the water in the pot, add an appropriate amount of rock sugar, and add the prepared glutinous rice balls

    

19. 19 Bring to a boil over medium heat, then add a small bowl of cold water and continue cooking until all the glutinous rice balls float and begin to color

    

20. 20 Turn off the heat and simmer for six or seven minutes. The color will become more and more beautiful and super transparent....

    

21. 21 After cooking, I threw the dumplings into the rice wine soup. Haha, life in this world is short but only a hundred years. The time is quiet, and the heart is always smiling and warm; live every day well without assumptions or expectations, and let the days live simple and beautiful; the good things will stay in the heart; the regrets will be dispersed with the wind. Live in the moment, do it and cherish it.
