Ingredients
- 120 grams Sweet rice flour (glutinous rice flour)
- 50 grams Sugar
- 200 milliliters Coconut milk
- 200 grams Fresh mango
- 30 grams Cornstarch (for dusting)
- 10 grams Coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Begin by making the mango filling. Peel and chop the fresh mango into small pieces. Use a blender to puree the mango until smooth.
Step 2
Transfer the mango puree to a saucepan over medium heat and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened slightly. Set aside to cool.
Step 3
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the sweet rice flour, sugar, and coconut milk. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
Step 4
Lightly grease a microwave-safe bowl with coconut oil. Pour in the mochi mixture.
Step 5
Cover the bowl with microwave-safe plastic wrap, leaving a small opening for steam to escape.
Step 6
Microwave the mixture on high for 2 minutes. Carefully stir the dough to ensure even cooking.
Step 7
Cover again and microwave for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until the mochi dough becomes translucent and sticky.
Step 8
Generously dust a clean work surface with cornstarch and transfer the cooked mochi dough onto it. Allow it to cool enough to handle.
Step 9
Divide the dough into 8 even pieces using a knife or scissors. Flatten each piece with your palms, forming small discs.
Step 10
Place a tablespoon of the mango puree filling in the center of each disc. Carefully pull up the edges of the mochi to encase the filling, pinching the seam to seal it completely.
Step 11
Lightly dust each ball with more cornstarch to keep them from sticking, and shape them gently into smooth balls.
Step 12
Allow the mochi to cool to room temperature before serving.
Step 13
For optimal freshness, enjoy the mochi on the same day or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day.
