Sesame ball

My husband loves to eat sesame ball, but he found that it is kind of expansive to buy and eat everytime. So, he was persuading me to make this. I tried, it turns out ok, not as good as the sell one. I am not so sure how people can make the sesame ball so large and pluffy. Mine one is small, and pluffy ... but it is not exactly the same that you buy at the bakery store or dim sum restaurant.

It is easy to make though, not hard.

Ingredients:

Glutinous rice flour
White sesame seed
Red bean paste
Wheat starch
1 tablespoonSugar

* Glutinous rice flour : wheat starch = 8:1
Methods:

Mix the glutinous rice flour, wheat starch and sugar. Stir in water until it form a dough (Note: do not form a wet dough, it is hard to shape later on).
Divide the dough into several portions. Do the same with the red bean paste and form a small ball.
Flatten the small portion of dough, put in the red bean paste. Seal it nicely.
In a bowl, put in the sesame seed. Roll the finished dough onto the sesame seed. Set aside and do the same for the rest of the dough.
Heat the oil in a big pan. Deep fry until golden brown and serve.
