Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, add the glutinous rice flour and gradually add water while kneading until it forms a smooth dough. The texture should be slightly sticky but manageable.
  • Take a small portion of the dough (about 1 tablespoon) and flatten it with your palm.
  • Place a cube of palm sugar in the center of the flattened dough.
  • Gather the edges of the dough and carefully seal it, ensuring the palm sugar is completely covered.
  • Roll the dough between your palms to form a smooth round ball. Repeat this process with the remaining dough and palm sugar.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil and gently drop the Klepon into the boiling water. Cook for around 2-3 minutes, or until they start to float to the surface.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked Klepon into a bowl of cold water to cool and prevent sticking.
  • Once cooled, roll the Klepon in the grated coconut until fully coated.
