For Chinese New Year celebration, Chinese people often love to have this dish made with glutinous rice flour and sweet or meat filling. This year I made these Tang Yuan with meat filling, delicious.
Prepare time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Level: Medium
Serves: 5 servings
Ingredients:
1) 45g extra lean ground pork;
2) 1 tsp chopped green onion, 1/3tsp premium soy sauce , 1/3 tsp light soy sauce, 1/3 tsp dark soy sauce, 1/8 tsp salt, 1/12 tsp ground white pepper, 1 tsp corn starch, 1/4 tsp sesame oil, 1/8 tsp chicken broth mix, 4 tsp water;
3) 2 cups glutinous rice flour (250g), 1 cup minus 1 tbsp warm water (225g);
4) 1 can chicken broth (410ml), 1.25 cups cold water (360g), 1/3 tsp salt,
5) 1 tsp chopped green onion.
Directions:
1: Combine all ingredients of Ingredient 1) to 2) in a bowl (Picture 1). Stir in one direction for 3 minutes with a wooden spoon, until the mixture becomes sticky (Picture 2).
2: Measure in 2 cups lutinous rice flour and 225 g warm water in a medium sized bowl (Picture 3) and knead to form dough (Picture 4). Divide the dough into 22 equal portions. Take one portion, indent with your thumb and shape it into a deep bowl and spoon in 1 tsp meat filling (Picture 5). Carefully work the dough up to cover the filling, seal the opening, and gently roll into a ball with your palms (Picture 6). Make sure the dough is not stretched too thin, otherwise the filling will leak out. Repeat the process to finish all 22 balls.
3: Fill a medium sauce pan with 5 cups water and bring to a boil. Put the glutinous rice balls in gently (Picture 7). When the water boils again, reduce heat to low and cook for another 10 minutes over medium-high heat.
4: Meanwhile, fill another small saucepan with all ingredients of Ingredient 4) and bring to a boil on high heat (Picture 8). Transfer the cooked glutinous rice balls into the serving bowls and fill with chicken both and scatter some chopped green onion. Sever immediately.
