Pearl Balls Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • 1. Soak the glutinous rice in water for at least 6 - 8 hours (preferably overnight). Drain well in a sieve or colander.
  • 2. Spread out the rice on a baking sheet. Note: Drain and spread out the rice just before making the pearl balls, so that the rice doesn't dry out too much.
  • 3. In a large bowl, combine the pork, soy sauce, Sake or sherry, green onion, water chestnuts, salt, pepper, egg white and cornstarch.
  • 4. Prepare the steamer for steaming.
  • 5. Take about 1 Tbs. of the ground pork mixture and form into a ball.
  • 6. Roll lightly over the glutinous rice and place on a heatproof plate.
  • 7. Continue with the rest of the pork mixture, placing the balls 1/2-inch apart. (You will need at least 2 plates).
  • 8. Place the plates in a steamer container or on a bamboo basket in a wok. Cover and steam the pearl balls over boiling water for between 25 - 35 minutes, until they are cooked through. Steam in two batches if needed.
  • 9. Serve the pearl balls hot with soy sauce
