Instructions
Prepare the Ribena glutinous rice mixture
- In a mixing bowl, pour in Ribena blackcurrant sparkling and glutinous rice flour. Whisk till it’s well incorporated into smooth batter.
Assemble the tart and steam
- Heat up the steamer. Wrap the lid with a towel. #Tips: This will prevent the water from dropping to the tart as it steams.
- Scoop 15g yam paste into the centre of the tartlet shell. Spread it out and flatten it tightly with a tea spoon.
- Pour in the glutinous rice batter till it’s ¾ filled. #Tips: The glutinous rice batter will expand as it steams. Hence, filling it to ¾ will prevent it from overflowing.
- Place in the tarts onto the steamer and steam at high heat for 1 hour. Do check the water level every 15 mins, top up as required.
- After steaming, let it cool down for at least 15 mins before serving.
