Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium-sized potatoes (peeled and cut into chunks)
- 1 cup glutinous rice flour (key ingredient for chewy texture)
- 1/2 cup water (helps bind the dough)
- 1 tablespoon sugar (adds sweetness)
- as needed oil for frying (choose a neutral oil)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce (for drizzling)
- to taste sesame seeds (for garnish)
- to taste chopped green onions (for color and flavor)
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes in a pot of water on medium heat until they are soft, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well and mash until smooth.
- Combine the mashed potatoes in a mixing bowl with the glutinous rice flour, water, and sugar. Mix well until it forms a soft, pliable dough that is slightly sticky.
- Divide the dough into small equal portions, roughly the size of golf balls, and gently shape them into discs or patties.
- Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the mochi in the pan and fry them for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve the crispy mochi warm, drizzled with soy sauce, and generously garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
