Ingredients
Scale
- Fresh strawberries
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup glutinous rice flour
- Cornstarch or potato starch for dusting
- 3/4 cup water
- Optional: red food coloring for pink mochi
Instructions
- Wash and dry the strawberries, then remove the stems. Cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, mix the glutinous rice flour, sugar, and water until smooth. If you want pink mochi, add a few drops of red food coloring.
- Microwave the mixture on high for 1-2 minutes until it becomes thick and sticky. Stir well.
- Allow the mochi mixture to cool slightly until it's safe to handle.
- Dust a clean surface with cornstarch or potato starch to prevent sticking.
- Take a small amount of the mochi mixture and flatten it into a disc shape. Place a piece of strawberry in the center, then wrap the mochi around it, pinching to seal.
- Repeat the process until all the mochi and strawberries are used.
- Dust the finished strawberry mochi with more cornstarch or potato starch to prevent sticking.
