Sweet & Salty Black Sesame Mochi Rice Cakes (Korean)

Soft and chewy mochi rice cakes flavored with a hint of sweetness and a touch of salt, enhanced with black sesame.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Oats
• 1 cup Glutinous rice flour (Mochiko)
• 1/4 cup Sugar
• Pinch Salt
• 1 cup Water
• 2 tbsp Black sesame seeds

Instructions

1. Combine glutinous rice flour, sugar, and salt in a microwave-safe bowl.
2. Gradually add water, mixing until smooth. Ensure no lumps remain.
3. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir vigorously.
4. Microwave for another 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is translucent and sticky. Stir again.
5. Sprinkle a baking sheet with oats and black sesame seeds. This will prevent sticking and add flavor.
6. Drop spoonfuls of the mochi mixture onto the prepared sheet. Wet your hands slightly to prevent the mochi from sticking to your fingers.
7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
