Ingredients
- 1 kg of yams, or sweet potatoes, or cassava
- Juice of half a lemon
- 1 cup + 1 cup rice flour
- 1 glass of water
- 3 teaspoons of salt
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Amaranth flakes for rolling or quinoa or rolled oats
Steps
Step 1: Put the glass of rice flour and the water in the pan
Step 2: Stir well, cover and cook over low heat for 10 minutes, until a paste forms
Step 3: Cut the yam into slices and put it in water with lemon
Step 4: Peel the slices, place in the pan covering with water and cook until firm
Step 5: Drain the water and put the pan on the fire to dry
Step 6: Knead the yam, add salt and oil
Step 7: Mix the yam with the rice paste with your hands and knead well
Step 8: Model the dough to put the stuffing you prefer, closing with a pout at the end
Step 9: Roll in amaranth flakes. Place in preheated medium oven for 30 minutes, or until golden
Tips
1: If you prefer, beat the yam with the rice paste in the processor, the dough gets a little sticky and that's normal
2: If you can't shape it by hand (with olive oil), add a cup of rice flour until it works
