Pumpkin 南瓜 Ondeh-ondeh



My friend Jane so nice sent me some gula Melaka (palm sugar), my first thought was to make some ondeh-ondeh. Since this month LTU event is all about pumpkin, so I use pumpkin to make the dough and fill up with palm sugar.

Pumpkin 南瓜Ondeh-ondeh 

150g glutinous rice flour

20g tapioca flour

100g mashed pumpkin

80g water 

70g palm sugar, chopped 

70g grated coconut

1/4tsp fine salt 

Method 

 1. Combine the glutinous rice flour, tapioca flour and mashed pumpkin in a mixing bowl, slowly add in water and knead till smooth.

 2. Steam grated coconut with salt for about 3mins, set aside to cool.

 3. Bring a pot of water to boil. Pinch a small piece of dough (15g each) and flatten lightly. Fill in palm sugar in the center and seal it and lightly roll them into a ball.

 4. Cook the balls in the boiling water, when the rice balls float to the surface, continue to cook for another 1-2mins.

 5. Remove them and coat with grated coconut.
