Bua Loy

Ingredients

• Pandan leaves - 2 (optional)
• Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• Sugar - 1/2 cup
• Coconut milk - 2 cups
• Food coloring - Few drops (optional)
• Water - 1/2 cup

1. In a bowl, mix the glutinous rice flour with water. If desired, divide the dough into portions and add a few drops of food coloring to each.
2. Roll the dough into small balls, about the size of a marble.
3. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Drop the rice balls into the boiling water. Cook until they float to the surface, then remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
4. In a separate pot, combine the coconut milk, sugar, salt, and pandan leaves (if using). Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
5. Add the cooked rice balls to the coconut milk mixture. Simmer for a few more minutes.
