Cooking steps

1

Mix the glutinous rice flour with a pinch of salt and add water gradually, kneading until a smooth, slightly sticky dough forms.
2

Combine black sesame paste, confectioners' sugar, and unsalted butter in a bowl until smooth; chill for 15 minutes for easier shaping.
3

Divide the dough into 16 pieces; flatten each one, place about 1 tsp of sesame filling in the center, and seal well to form balls.
4

Heat vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed pan to 340°F (170°C); carefully lower tangyuan into the oil in small batches.
5

Fry tangyuan for 3-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden and crisp; drain on paper towels and serve warm for best texture.

Personalized Q&A

Q. What's the key ingredient in this fried tangyuan recipe?

Glutinous rice flour is the key ingredient. It provides the signature chewy texture of tangyuan, which contrasts beautifully with the crispy shell created by frying.

Q. What is the most important cooking step for perfect texture?

Heating the oil to the correct temperature (about 340°F or 170°C) before frying is crucial. This ensures a golden, crisp shell while keeping the interior chewy without absorbing excess oil.

Q. How do I prevent the tangyuan from bursting while frying?

Seal each ball well after filling, and avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry in small batches at stable medium heat to maintain crispness and prevent splitting.

Q. What are the nutrition facts for one serving?
