I did follow the instructions to make the dough as described, but I noticed my dough would not formed into balls at all because it was way too dry. So I kept adding some coconut milk to it until it was able to form balls. I made bite size sizes; the first couple balls I fried turned out a little dark, so I lowered the temp to med, and they turned out golden. I did add a whole pink bag of alsa baking powder, and also used the potato flakes. My balls were really crunchy. I did not get to see if it would still be crunchy after a day cause they were all out by the 1st night.

Instead of using the potatoe I used the coconut jam from the Asian store. It has nice orange color and still keeps the sesame ball crunchy the next day. I had encounter a little issue when making the dough. I notice that once the dough cools down or gets cold from the warm water, it started to get dried. This makes it hard to form the dough into a ball. Any suggestion on how to fix this little issue will really help, thanks. Looking forward to many more of your new recipes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967868157203158291.post-8696027549360226572011-04-05T13:55:46.055-07:002011-04-05T13:55:46.055-07:00Sorry to hear that your banh cam didn't turn o...Sorry to hear that your banh cam didn't turn out right. Too much baking powder might cause that problem. I don't think the flake potato is the problem. Someone left a comment saying that she used potato flake and her banh cam turned out perfect. I don't even think stirring i while frying is the problem either. Since you have the filling already, you might try to make another batch of dough without using a whole bag of baking powder to test it out. Make sure your oil temperature is not too high.Loan aka Annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02413757380816843136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967868157203158291.post-88003672567272823732011-04-05T12:42:33.625-07:002011-04-05T12:42:33.625-07:00I don't know what went wrong, but mine ball po...I don't know what went wrong, but mine ball pop, and oil was spatter everywhere. Within the 3 ball, I have to stop and throw it all away. Is it because I used the whole bag of baking powder or because I use the flake potatoe instead of the real thing.

Store banh cam also doesn't have shredded coconut. You might want to soak the mung bean then steam it instead. You might want to make some with shredded coconut and without just to see the diff. I haven't tried it yet, but I think it might turn out what you want.Loan aka Annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02413757380816843136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967868157203158291.post-66831994359985097342011-01-31T14:15:27.460-08:002011-01-31T14:15:27.460-08:00Hi Loan,

The first time they were good, but not perfect. The second time was perfection; we took your advice to make the mung bean mixture dry and got better at the frying time and temperature. We had been cooking them at too high of a temperature. 325 degrees worked great for us.
