南洋風味--番薯蛋 Sweet Potato donuts（balls）

 

番薯蛋是家鄉一個很普遍的零食，是每次去Pasar Malam或者齋戒月的開齋攤子一定要買的一個甜食。 今天做好了給隔壁阿姨送了一盤過去，她的兒子拿起來吃了一口就說。。。“這是馬來西亞甜甜球哦！好吃！"

 

我覺得它比donut要好吃啦！

This sweet potato donut is a very common snack in Malaysia, it is mostly available in pasar malam （night markets）and food stalls, a good snack over afternoon.

I bought very good sweet potatoes few days back and made these balls for teatime. I sent a plateful over to my neighbour, her son had a bite and said “This is Malaysian donut, nice!".

 

 

材料：

200克 番（紅）薯（什麽顏色的都可以）

1/4 杯 麵粉  （麵粉和薯粉的量可以根據番薯的粘度調整）

1 tbsp 木薯粉  

1 tbsp 糖

1/8 tsp Baking soda  

糖粉（caster sugar）適量  可無

 

Ingredients：
200 gm Sweet potatoes (any colours)
1/4 cup  All purpose flour （All purpose flour and starch can be adjusted according to the consistency of dough）
1 tbsp Corn starch/tapioca flour
1 tbsp sugar
1/8 tsp Baking soda
Some caster sugar for dusting  optional
 

 

1. 把番薯削皮，蒸軟，然後壓成泥， 把麵粉、薯粉、糖和 Baking Soda加入，和成軟軟的麵團。  
 

2. 手掌抹一點點油，用一個茶匙掏出麵團搓成丸子狀，如果麵團比較粘是很正常的，基本上隻要能搓成丸子就好了。  
 

3. 然後把油熱到差不多7-8成的時候，轉中火，下番薯蛋，中火慢慢的炸成金黃色，差不多要7-8分鍾的模樣，如果一下鍋很快就變色就表示油溫太高了，最好先用一小團粉試試看。  

 

4. 瀝幹油之後，即可食用。也可以撒上糖粉吃。

1. Peel, cut and steam sweet potatoes until soft, mashed and add all purpose flour, cornstarch, sugar and Baking Soda to make a soft dough。

2. Spread a little oil on palm, take out some dough using a small teaspoon, make it into a small ball, the dough is quiet sticky, so do not worry about it being too soft, as long as the dough could hold together to form a ball, it should be fine.

3. Heat oil at medium heat, test the temperature using a small dough, if it turned brown instantly, the oil is too hot, it should start bubbling and the dough should float on the oil, fry the balls until golden brown in color.

4. Drain excess oil, set it on a plate, sprinkle caster sugar on top, Serve warm.
