Ingredients:
- 2 cups taro, peeled and diced
- 1 cup glutinous rice flour
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup sweet red bean paste (optional)
- Fresh banana leaves or parchment for wrapping
Instructions:
- First, steam the diced taro until it’s tender, about 20-30 minutes. Your kitchen will start to smell like a tropical paradise, so embrace it!
- Once tender, mash the taro in a bowl until smooth. It’s okay if it has a few lumps; remember, no one’s judging your mashing skills here!
- Add the glutinous rice flour, coconut milk, sugar, and salt to the mashed taro. Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined. It’s going to be a sticky situation, but you’ll be thrilled with the results!
- If you’re feeling adventurous, add a dollop of sweet red bean paste to the center of each roll before wrapping. You’ll add a mysterious twist that’s sure to delight guests!
- Take a manageable portion of the mixture and roll it into a log shape. Wrap them tightly in banana leaves or parchment paper like a troubled burrito. Secure with kitchen twine or toothpicks.
- Steam the rolls for another 20 minutes. Grab a snack while you wait—your Taro Rolls are almost ready to shine!
- Once steamed, carefully remove them from the steamer, unwrapping them to reveal the colorful delights within. Slice and serve them warm. Feel free to impress everyone with your rolling skills.
