String hoppers

Ingredients

2 cups flour (red rice flour and steamed flour mixed)
1tsp salt
300ml boiling water mixed with 50ml cold water

Method

In a steamer, steam a packet of plain white flour.
When cool, break up and sift twice. Mix with a packet of roasted red rice flour.

Put flour and salt into a large bowl and gradually add the water and mix quickly into a pliable dough.

When thoroughly mixed, put a little of the dough into a string hopper mould and squeeze the mixture onto a string hopper mat in a circular fashion.

Place 4 or 5 mats in a steamer and steam over a pan of boiling water for about 5 minutes.

Once string hoppers are cooked, remove from the mats and place on a dish.
