Ingredients
- 150 grams Glutinous rice flour
- 150 grams Mango puree (fresh mango blended)
- 100 ml Water
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 25 grams Cornstarch (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the glutinous rice flour and granulated sugar. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the sugar.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, combine the mango puree and water, and stir until well-blended.
Step 3
Gradually add the liquid mixture to the flour mixture, stirring continuously until a smooth batter forms without lumps.
Step 4
Cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap, leaving a small opening for steam to escape.
Step 5
Microwave the mixture on high for 2 minutes. Remove from the microwave, stir the mixture with a wet spatula to ensure even cooking, and break up any clumps.
Step 6
Return the bowl to the microwave and heat for another 1.5 minutes on high. The mochi should be more translucent and sticky at this stage.
Step 7
Generously dust a clean surface with cornstarch and turn the mochi dough out onto it. Be careful as the dough may be very hot.
Step 8
Dust your hands and a rolling pin with cornstarch to prevent sticking. Gently roll the dough to a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
Step 9
Cut the mochi dough into 2-inch squares or use a cookie cutter for desired shapes.
Step 10
Allow the pieces to cool completely before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
