Sticky Rice Balls

Cook the Rice Balls.

Removing the Rice Balls from the Boiling Water

D.Schmidt

Now turn the heat down to medium or medium-high, just high enough to keep the water bubbling nicely. Once the balls have risen to the surface of the water, continue cooking for 2 more minutes (3-4 minutes in total).

While the rice balls are cooking, prepare a clean surface on which to place them (a cutting board or your counter will work - or you can cover your counter with a piece of wax or parchment paper). Pour a few drops of oil over this surface (up to 1/2 tsp.) and "grease" it as you would a cake pan, or the balls with stick and you won't be able to remove them later (you will also need to grease the paper)!

Using a slotted spoon or small strainer, remove the rice balls from the water and place on your prepared surface.
