Ingredients
- 4 cups glutinous rice flour
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- 2 cups warm water
- 1 ½ tsp vanilla (optional)
- 2 medium eggs beaten
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix glutinous rice and sugar. Pour in warm water and mix until the batter becomes smooth.
- Grease a rectangle or round pan (glass, ceramic, or aluminum) with oil and fill it with the batter.
- Steam over medium heat for around 30-40 minutes or until inserted toothpick on the middle of the pan does not comes out easily and feels sticky instead of liquidy. Let it cool down completely.
- Refrigerate overnight to let it set and harden a bit. Try to pull the rice cake out from one side and it should completely come out from the pan. If it doesn't, run a knife at the edges of the pan and dislodge the Tikoy carefully.
- Cut into thin slices about quarter of an inch thick.
- Dip the slices in the beaten eggs and fry in hot oil over low heat until both sides turn golden brown and crispy!
- Transfer fried tikoy on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil. Then transfer to a serving tray or dish.
