Ingredients:

2 cups Mochiko Sweet Rice Flour (You can find it in Asian stores)

2 cups Sweetened flaked Coconut

1 ½ cups Coconut milk

Oil to fry the Karioka balls (Frying oil such as canola oil)

For the Karioka Glaze:

1 cup Light brown sugar

¼ cup Coconut milk

In a mixing bowl or electric mixer, combine sweet rice flour, flaked coconut, and coconut milk.

Note: I used Thermomix to combine the above mentioned ingredients. *** Thermomix: 10 Seconds/Speed 6.
Open the Thermomix, scrape down the sides of the bowl. Close the lid, and set the TM once again- Thermomix: 10 Seconds/Speed 6

Take a tablespoon of the dough, and shape into a ball. (I use an ice cream scoop to get perfectly-sized uniform Karaoke balls)

In a frying pan heat up the oil. Remember that the oil has to be hot enough to fry the balls-I usually test the oil temperature by frying one ball first.
Cook the balls until golden brown, and transfer the fried balls onto a plate lined with paper towels to remove the excess of oil. Set aside.

Glaze:

In a medium size sauce pan, combine the brown sugar, and the coconut milk. Bring to a boil, and remove from hit.

***Note: For those using the Thermomix to make the Glaze: Combine the brown sugar, and the coconut milk- Thermomix: 10 Minutes/Temperature 100/ Speed 2

Dip the Karaoke balls in the brown sugar glaze until the are fully coated.
