- 01
Flavour the water
Mix the pandan essence into the warm water.
Ready to continue when: The water has an even colour and aroma.

Make the dough
Mix the glutinous rice flour with the rice flour. Gradually add the flavoured water and work the mixture until it forms a pliable dough.
Ready to continue when: The dough holds together when shaped into a ball and does not stick to your hands.

Fill and seal
Divide the dough into small portions and flatten each one. Place a little palm sugar in the centre, close the dough around the filling, then roll each portion between your hands to form a sealed ball.
Ready to continue when: The balls are smooth, with no visible gaps for the sugar to escape.

Bring plenty of water to a boil in a pot. Add the balls and cook for about 10 minutes, until they float. Remove them and roll them in the grated coconut to coat.
Ready to continue when: The balls float to the surface and are coated in grated coconut.
