Ingredients You Need for Grilled Matcha Mochi [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
How to Prepare Grilled Matcha Mochi [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
- Add the rice flour and matcha powder to a large bowl.
- Stir or whisk well to combine.
- Pour in a little water, about 1/4 cup, and continue to stir.
- Add more water little by little until the flour is doughy. If you add too much water and it becomes runny, simply add more flour.
- Sprinkle some rice flour onto your counter then transfer the dough onto it.
- Knead the dough a bit then form it into a long thin shape.
- Divide the dough into 8-12 parts, and form each into a ball. Set aside.
- To fill your mochi place a ball of dough into your floured palm.
- Flatten the dough, and place about 1 tbsp of red bean paste into the center.
- Gently manipulate the dough around the red bean paste, and make sure it is entirely encased within the dough.
- Flatten it out a bit (should be about 1/2-inch thick), and set aside.
- Fill the remaining mochi dough.
- Heat and grease a grill, grill pan, or skillet over medium heat.
- Place the mochi onto the grill and cook each side for 4-5 minutes.
- Place the cooked mochi on a plate, and continue with the remaining.
- Serve hot.
- Leftovers can be reheated in a skillet or on the grill.
Notes
If you don't have a grill or grill pan, you can make this using a skillet.
