Sweet Chinese fried pumpkin glutinous rice cake



Ingredients:
300g mashed pumpkin
300g glutinous rice flour (Do not add in all at a time)
80g -100g sugar


Preparation :
1. Wash and cut pumpkin to steam in a steamer for about 30 minutes.
2. Scoop out the cooked pumpkin and mash it in a container.




3. Add sugar and rice flour (a little at a time) to the mashed pumpkin and knead. Since no water is used in this recipe, we might not need all the flour. Make sure to add just enough flour to form a soft and smooth dough.
*Note: Amount of flour depends on the texture of the pumpkin used.




4. Divide the dough into about 25 portions. Roll each into ball shape and flatten it with your palm.







5. Heat some oil (enough to cover bottom half of the cake) in frying pan. Put in the pumpkin cake to fry when the oil is hot. When it  turns golden brown turn over to cook the other side.
6. Dish out onto a plate lined with kitchen tissue to absorb away the excess oil.
7. Serve while it's hot.

  1. This was an amazing recipe, my friend's mother used to make these all the time but I never asked how they were made.
