CHRISTOH said...

Hi Aunty Lucy,
I am hokkien but married a hainanese. I must say hainanese are real great foodies; my husband prides himself in being a hainanese and everytime we go to a good eating place, he will proudly proclaim that the cook inside must also be a hainanese! ha ha. Regards, Chris

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Chris,

yes yes a lot of chefs in hotels are hainanese. I'm also very proud of being a Hainanese - can't help it lah...got flat head. But hainanese men are known to be handsome and the girls are very ugly with flat heads.

My grandfather is a cook for the British.

Hi Aunty Yochana,

I would like to try this recipe as I did glutionous Rice Ball before but it always fails!! Your skin is so thin, but mine is forever thick! Any tips? Also, I dont have wheat starch flour anything to sub it?

Aunty Yochana said...

Jess,

I think you used too much dough to wrap the peanut fillings.

MsCake said...

Hi Lucy

Thanks for showing us the nice recipe but I need to clarify something before trying out :

1) before coating with sesame seeds, u said to dip in water - May I know is it just briefly dip in room temp water (not hot water)?

2) the peanut fillings to be combined with some shortenings, can I just add bit of oil to combine or just do away with the oil ?

Thanks for your advice.

Catherine

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi CAtherine,

Dip the balls until it's totally wet so that the sesame seeds will stick onto it.

If you don't want to combine the peanut fillings with shortening, combine it with peanut butter. You'll love it.

Aunty Yochana, do you think the 200g roasted grounded peanuts can be substituted with 200g of black sesame powder? Then if got left over, can use it to wrap black sesame tang yuan also. Will it give the oozing lava when bite into? One of my housemate on holiday, I wanna find something for her to do so she would leave me in peace so I could study, hehe. Evil me!

Aunty Yochana said...

Hi Quinn,

Yes you can use black sesame seeds instead of groundnuts.... while frying the sesame seed fillings will stick to the wall and become hollow inside. It's the norm..

Hi,
I ate at a yum cha restaurant recently and the sesame ball was the size of a large orange. But when it was opened the ball was completely hollow. Do you know how I can make these sesame balls of that size and with such a large cavity inside?
