Time 1h10m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 ½ ounces green mung beans
1 cup water
½ cup white sugar
2 cups glutinous rice flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
⅛ teaspoon salt
¼ cup water
1 quart cooking oil

Steps:

  • Combine the mung beans and 1 cup water in a pot and bring to a boil; boil over medium heat until the beans are very tender, about 30 minutes. Mash the beans thoroughly. Stir 1/2 cup sugar into the mashed beans; set aside.
  • Mix the glutinous rice flour, 2 tablespoons sugar, salt, and 1/4 cup water together in a large bowl; knead together just enough to form a ball. Divide the ball into small pieces and roll into balls. Flatten each ball of dough, and spoon 1 tablespoon of the mashed bean mixture into the middle of the dough. Wrap the dough around the bean mixture and pinch the edges together to seal. Repeat until all the dough and paste is used.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Fry the balls in batches in the hot oil until golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes per batch. Serve hot.

The buchi were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding more butter or oil to the dough next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the buchi came out perfect! They were golden brown and crispy on the outside, and soft and fluffy on the inside. The filling was delicious and flavorful.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still enjoyable. I think next time I'll use less sugar in the filling.
