As a child I loved Dong zhi festival, as it is the time where we can make these colourful balls and also it is a reminder that new year is near, and there will be new dresses, and red pockets with monies.
A lot of fun can be had for children to make these ball with their own mixed of marble colour, design with eyes and nose.
Whether it is serve in palm sugar and ginger syrup or clear pandan flavour, it taste really nice and refreshing.
The recipe are really simple:
1 cup of glutinuous rice powder
1 teaspoon of sugar
enough water to make this into a soft dough
Divide dough into 5 lots,. colour with small amount of food colouring.
cook palm sugar and a little ginger in boiling water to make syrup or alternately boil 2 pandan leaves and sugar for pandan flavour syrup.
Boil glutinuos ball until it float, scoop and place into syrup.
