belated Dong Zhi

ahhh...

i feel satisfied now
as the chinese believe that once you ate the tang yuan
you've grown up a year

since yesterday i didn't eat any
so today, with the help of my dear friend jin mun
i went to the indian shop and stock up some glutinous rice flour
for the tang yuan purpose loh....

yesterday i viewed many recipes
so wanted to tried some
heres some picture hehe

first, the recipe i jot down and some ingredients...


then

rice flour!!!


with the miracle-ness of my hands...
Tadaaa......(perasanya)it become a lump of something...
flour la...


then...into lil rice balls...known as tang yuan



the syrup....
added with ginger, pandan leaves, rock sugar...

this is the end product after boiling the lil rice balls
it ain't fluffy already :(

it looks more like fish balls



the experimental DONE!
Clarins' copyrighted glutinous rice ball, Tang Yuan
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

i did quite a few mistakes when i did this
first....i over boiled the first batch of tang yuan
secondly...when i was preparing the lump of dough, i accidentally poured too much water resulting in a very very soft flour, and i added more flour to repair it...haha

omg..
its a success...

jin mun's popo and sister tried it!
hehe

hope the mashed potato this thursday will turn up it is!!!!
