My Ah Ma’s Hakka Abacus Seed Recipe

Ingredients:

400g yam

200g topical starch

A teaspoon salt

2 tablespoon of oil

To make the abacus seed, add just enough water to cook the yam as too much water will tame down the yam’s taste. Once the yam is soft, remove it from the heat.

Mash the yam while it’s hot, then add the tapioca flour and salt to combine them. After which add in 1 tablespoon of oil.

Once they are cool to touch, knead into a soft dough. The dough should be soft so that you are able to form into a small ball.

Take a pinch of dough, roll into a ball, then pinch the middle to make a dent with your index finger and thumb.

After making the abacus seed, follow the above steps to cook them up!! #hakkafood #recipes #ThingsToDo #cooking
