Recipe: Japanese dessert mochi maheev

Step by step cooking recipe

Mix rice flour, icing sugar (50 g) and dry dye.

After thoroughly mixing, begin to gradually pour in cold water, stirring the mixture with a whisk.

The result should be a mass that resembles dough for pancakes (liquid, but dense).

Cover the bowl with cling film and place in the microwave for 4 minutes.

Then leave to cool at room temperature.

At this time, you can start preparing the filling.

Mix ricotta and powdered sugar.

Put the filling in the refrigerator to make it easier to work with.

Shape the cooled dough into balls.

Roll out each ball like a “pancake”, then form a “bag” put the cheese filling (about a teaspoon) into it and then add the “Maheev” jam.

Pinch the dough and turn it over with the pinch down, forming a hemisphere.

Mochi are ready!
