Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup mochiko flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (hulled)
- 1/4 cup potato starch (for dusting)
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace by sprinkling potato starch on a clean flat surface.
- In a large bowl, mix mochiko flour, sugar, and water until smooth.
- Transfer the mixture to a microwave-safe bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on high for 1 minute; stir and repeat two more times until sticky and translucent.
- Once cool enough to handle, take small pieces of dough and flatten them into circles about three inches wide.
- Place a strawberry at the center of each circle, pinch the edges to seal, and roll lightly in potato starch to prevent sticking.
- Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
