Ingredients
- 2 cups sweet glutinous rice flour
- 1 cup steamed and mashed taro root
- ¼ cup water
- Coconut milk
Directions
Combine rice flour, mashed taro, and water to make a dough .
Shape the dough into small balls, using additional rice flour to prevent sticking.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil . Add the dough balls to the boiling water. They will initially sink but will gradually float to the surface as they cook.
Remove the cooked bua loi from the pot, and drain the water.
Transfer the bua loi to a dish, and serve with coconut milk. This dish is best served hot.
