In jeol mi (Sweet rice cake covered with
toasted bean powder) recipe |
|
|
|
Ingredients: |
1 lb sweet rice flour |
|
|
1/2 pack toasted bean powder |
|
|
4 tablespoons sugar |
|
|
2 teaspoons salt |
|
|
2 cups water |
|
|
 Preheat
oven to 375F.
Mix sweet rice flour with 3 tablespoons of sugar and 2 teaspoons
salt.
Add water and mix well.
Spray the ring mold with vegetable spray or butter.
Spoon in the batter, cover with a foil(spray the foil, too),
bake for 1 hour.
The key is not to form a crust outside, so use heavy pan or use
extra cookie sheet on the bottom.
Or just bake in a pound cake mold then peel off the crust with a
knife.
After an hour, take it out, flip it on a cutting board, cut into
bite size pieces.
Mix bean powder with 1 tablespoon sugar.
Roll the rice cake in a bean powder.
Serve warm. |
|
|
Tips: Separate them when they are hot,
because the rice cake will go bad from the heat.
After they are cooled, store in a fridge, then warm up in a pan
with low heat.
Or they will stay soft a day or two in a cool counter top. |
