2020, I not really like tan yuan, but in order to not to let the kids forget about our chinese culture, I still make it every year and getting them to involve as well.
This year, due to busy year end thing, i kind of forgot and until my friends sent me wishes on this festival.
In fact, for us (chinese) this is 'bigger than our lunar chinese new year', we will grow 1 year older after eating this :) Also, saying that the number of tan yuan we eat must be equivalent to our age. (i still remember my siblings always 'bully' me in the old time, forcing me to eat more as knowing i dont like it) >-<
I need to note down this recipe before i forget, else i have to google everywhere when i need it. And this amount is just nice for my family as everyone got a good amount of tan yuan.
Ingredient:
Glutinuous flour : [ 2/3 cup : 9 balls ] x 2
Water : [ 60ml + 4 tbsp (30 hot + 30 room temp water) ] x 2

Instruction:
1. Just mix the flour with the water, until is not sticky
2. Normally i split it into 3 portion for sesame, peanut butter and chocolate filling.
