This recipe is so easy a child could make it - my daughter used to enjoy making this & added weird food coloring that would make a purist cringe! From Aunty Pua's Keiki Cookbook .
Ingredients:
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
1 cup mochiko sweet rice flour (rice flour)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 drops red food coloring or 2 drops green food coloring
soybean flour (kinako)
vegetable oil, to grease pan
Directions:
1. Mix together all ingredients except kinako using an electric mixer.
2. Mix only until batter is smooth, do not over mix.
3. Spray pan with non-stick vegetable oil spray or oil lightly with vegetable oil.
4. Pour batter into the pan & cover with plastic wrap.
5. Microwave on high for 5 minutes; if your microwave does not rotate, turn pan after 2 minutes.
6. Carefully remove the plastic wrap, allowing the steam to escape away from you.
7. Cool.
8. Cut into 12 pieces using a plastic knife.
9. Place some kinako on some plastic wrap and roll mochi in it.
