Fried Sweet Potatoes Balls


These Fried Sweet Potatoes Balls brought back memories of the time when I bought them from the hawker centre opposite Bugis Village. They were crispy and chewy as addictive as before. Since this week is a Sweet Potatoes weekend, how could I not make these balls and gave me a chance to record this recipe in my blog. Though this is a fried snacks but is fine to eat these once in a while (to pamper ourselves).

Ingredients 

450g orange sweet potato flesh (boiled and mashed)
250g glutinous rice flour
30g corn flour
130g sugar
1/2 tsp salt
Oil for deep frying

Directions

1. Skin sweet potatoes, clean and cut into big chunk. Boils sweet potatoes in a pot of water until tender. 
2. Discard water and in a big bowl, mash the potatoes.
3. Put mashed potatoes into a mixing bowl, add in glutinous rice flour, corn flour, sugar and salt. Mix well to form a smooth dough.
4. Pinch a small piece of dough (about 15g each) and with both palms, roll and form into a smooth ball.
5. Heat up oil in a wok, with medium low fire, put 6-8 balls each time and fry until golden brown. Remove and drain oil on a paper towel.
6. Repeat step 5 until all the balls have been fried. Serve immediately.
