Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams glutinous rice flour
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 240 milliliters whole milk
- 1 packet (about 100 grams) lemon pudding mix
- 120 milliliters water
- 30 grams unsalted butter
- 50 grams cornstarch
- 1 whole lemon zest of lemon
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the glutinous rice flour and granulated sugar. Mix thoroughly to ensure an even distribution.
In a separate bowl, dissolve the lemon pudding mix in the water. Stir until smooth and then add the whole milk. Mix well.
Pour the liquid mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined. Add the butter and lemon zest, then mix until smooth.
Prepare a microwave-safe bowl or glass dish by lightly greasing it to prevent sticking.
Pour the mochi batter into the prepared dish and cover it loosely with plastic wrap or a microwave-safe lid.
Microwave the batter in 2-3 minute intervals, stirring well between each interval, for a total of 8-10 minutes. The mixture should become thick and sticky.
Once the mochi is cooked, let it cool slightly before transferring it to a clean, cornstarch-dusted work surface.
Sprinkle more cornstarch onto your hands and knead the mochi dough lightly to shape it into a smooth, cohesive ball.
Divide the mochi dough into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into small rounds or desired shapes for serving.
Serve the Lemon Pudding Mochi at room temperature or chilled for an extra refreshing treat.
