Directions

  1. Peel and cut the potato into pieces. Boil the pieces in water for 15 minutes, or until soft.

  2. Mash the boiled potatoes into a smooth consistency. Add 35g of sugar and mix well.

  3. Combine the mashed potato mixture with 80g of glutinous rice flour to form a dough. Take small portions of the dough and shape them into small balls.

  4. Roll each ball in sesame seeds, ensuring they stick evenly on all sides. Flatten the ball slightly into a cake-like shape using your palm.

  5. Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the cakes until they turn golden brown on both sides.
