Traditionally this is made with red food coloring, but I ran out and used blue instead. This is very tasty, and sweet. I do tend to like to add a tiny bit of vanilla.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Take water chestnuts, about 10-15 pieces.
  2. 2
    Slice each chestnut into half, making two round disks.
  3. 3
    Make two cuts into the two disks to make 6 equally sized pieces.

    Set chestnut pieces into a bowl and drop the red food coloring and a teaspoon of water and mix well.
  5. 5
    Drain the chestnuts of any juice.
  6. 6
    Put tapioca flour in a big bowl.
  7. 7
    Drop the chestnuts in and shake the bowl around to coat the chestnuts with flour.
  8. 8
    Scoop the chestnuts into a strainer to get rid of the excess flour.
  9. 9
    Put it into another bowl.Spray some water on the chestnuts with a misting spritzer. Put them back in the flour bowl. Coat them with flour again.

    Pour out water from the bowls.
