25 g glutinous-rice flour |
25 g wheat starch |
25 g shortening |
30 g caster sugar |

2 tablespoons white sugar |
50 ml water |
2 tablespoons oil |
Directions:
1. For filling, heat up wok with oil, melt white sugar.

3. Stir until fragrant and put aside.
4. For skin, Peel and cut tapioca into very small cubes.
5. Steam until soft for 30 minutes or more.
