Deep fried mochi with azuki filling

When I am tired, I crave sweets and deep fried foods, so frying the mochi seemed like a great idea to me. And I was right! It was soo delicious and takes the ordinary microwave mochi to a WHOLE new level. But I guess the deep fryer will do that just about anything huh? Anyways, this was not my healthiest dessert made, but it still was gluten free and vegan. I also added green tea matcha powder to the mochi mix so it had a nice green tea aroma to it.

   


Here is the recipe! Enjoy :)

Ingredients:

1.5 cups of mochiko (sweet rice) flour
1.25 cups of unsweetened soy milk
1 cup of sugar (I used stevia instead)
1 tbsp of matcha (green tea) powder

azuki beans to fill the mochi (you can get pretty creative with the fillings. I have used chocolate, fresh blueberries, and other ingredients before and all turned out good.)

1. In a large mixing bowl pour in ingredients
2. mix for about 3 minutes
3. if you have a deep fryer, follow the instructions and heat to recommended temperature
4. pour out mochi minxture into microwavable bowl and cook in microwave for 3 minutes
5. take out and let cool until you can touch it. (Careful handling the mochi! I have burnt my fingers before!)
6. when cool enough to handle, take small portions of the mochi and stretch it out. scoop in the azuki beans and form a dumpling like shape
7. you can roll these dumplings in sesame seeds if you like
8. take out of fryer when it looks like it is crispy enough.

9. Let cool before enjoying :)
