  3. Divide the taro paste into 10 equal portions, each about 25g.
  4. Roll each portion into a ball and flatten it, then wrap around the glutinous rice ball filling. Freeze in the freezer.

Making the Pastry (oil pastry):

  2. Flatten the pastry ball with a rolling pin, then roll it up into a long tube shape.
  3. Rotate the dough 45 degrees and roll it into a long tube shape again. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 20 minutes.
  4. After 10 minutes, cut the dough in half vertically and the spiral pattern should be visible on the cut surface.
  5. Flatten the dough into a circular shape pastry.
