Glutinous Rice Ball with Ginger Syrup
This is Chinese sweet and serves during their New Year celebration.  I twisted a bit to my taste.

1 bag of glutinous rice flour
1 ¾ cups of water
Mix and knead to soft dough cover and set aside
For the Ginger Syrup (do adjust the sweetness and water)
2 cup of brown or palm sugar or white sugar whatever you have best is brown or palm.
4 cup of water
3 slices of ginger
Roasted Sesame seeds for garnish (keep this last)
1 Pandand leave tight it into a knot (if you don’t have pandand leave use any flavoring like vanilla, rose or Jasmine to flavor your syrup.
Boil everything together until it is thicker, taste and adjust the sweetness, set aside (do take the Pandand leave out and through away when it is done)
For the filling
1 cup of palm sugar soften
1/2 cup of roasted crust peanut
1/2 cup of roasted coconut flake
It is easy if you heat the sugar a bit before add the peanut and coconut flake.

Mix all the filling together until well combine then take a small piece of sticky filling and roll in to a small ball (a bit bigger than your thumb) set aside and finish the rest.

Now take a small piece of dough and flat in the palm of your hand and put the sugar filing in the middle wrap the dough and around the filling and roll it to a round ball, set aside finish the rest of dough and filling.

Fill a pot of water and bring to a boil enough to cook the round ball dough few at a time.
When the water is boiling drop dough in and let it boil when the dough float to the top let it cook for few more minutes than it should be done. 


When ready to serve keep the syrup warm, spoon some cooked rice ball into a small bowl then add the ginger syrup to it and sprinkle with sesame seeds.  Serve warm with Tea.  You can drizzle warm sweet coconut milk to it if you like.

This is very simple and quick dessert if you use frozen cassava it cook quickly.  If you don’t like banana you can use all cassava but use 2 packages instead of one frozen cassava.

1 can of coconut milk
4 cups of water
2 bananas cut to bite size
1/3 cups of white or color tapioca wash and soak in water
1/2 t of salt

Roasted sesame seeds to sprinkle when serve

In a pot boil 4 cups of water then add cassava cook until cassava is soft
Add coconut milk sugar, salt; boil it on medium heat keep eyes on the stove because coconut milk can boil over the pot.  When it is boiling add tapioca to it
Let it boil again until the tapioca is cook completely then add banana cook just few minutes until banana is soft to the taste then turn the heat off.

When it is cool down brush the noodle both side with oil then cut it in about 2 inches wide or any length you like.  Make sure you brush the noodle with enough oil so it won’t stick when you stack it in a bowl.

Wonton Soup


Wonton Soup

For the wonton
3/4 lb of ground pork (if you like do half pork half shrimp)
1/2 t cornstarch
2 finely chopped green onion
1 T of soy sauce
1 t of minced fresh ginger
1 t of sesame oil
1 t of sugar

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl to paste refrigerator for at least 1 hour
25 wonton wrappers, place 1 t of the filling in a wrapper bush edges with beaten egg
And pinch edges to seal, you can also wrap like tortellini as what I did. Repeat the remaining.

For the soup
25 wontons
1 box (32 oz) chicken broth (if you like more broth you can add more but make sure you adjust the flavor)
1 small pkg of wonton soup (sell at the Asian store)
1 t thinly sliced ginger
1 to 2 green onions for garnish
1 to of sugar
1 t to T of soy sauce
2 small head of baby bok choy cut in to 4 parts



The trick about wonton soup is not to boil the wonton with the soup (the wonton skin will fall apart) or bok choy
Steam 25 wontons, spray with cooking spray onto the steamer so it won’t stick for 20 minutes, the meat should be done. Take the wontons out and set aside.
Steam the bok choy for 5 minutes then take it out.
In a soup pot add chicken broth, wonton soup mix, ginger, sugar, and soy sauce bring to a boil
Taste and adjust the saltiness to your taste, turn the heat off add green onions.
When ready to serve put few steam wontons and baby bok choy in a soup bowl pour hot broth enough for 1 serving into the soup bowl.
Note you can add cook Chinese sliced bbq pork, or cook egg noodle to this soup when ready to serve.
