Colorful Ondeh Ondeh
Ondeh ondeh are great snacks made of sweet potatoes and glutinuous rice flour.
Sweet potatoes are colorful and nutritious. I bought some with a variety of colors and made some ondeh ondeh.
These are easy to make and are vegan. Asians and westerners all like them. The mouth-fill is very much like mochi, firm and tangy. The inside of these little furry balls are gula melaka, or palm sugar.
