Simple recipe. You only need a microwave. Very versatile with dough and fillings. Not too sweet either. Here's a small batch which can be multiplied, but if you make more, experiment with the microwave times.

SERVES 8 -10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup mochiko sweet rice flour (glutinous rice flour)
1 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
katakuriko, for dusting (potato starch)

Directions

1
Mix mochiko and sugar in a bowl.
2
Add water and mix thoroughly. (will be watery).
3
Put in a microwaveable dish. Cover with plastic wrap.
4
Microwave on high for 4 minutes. Take off plastic wrap. Cool for a few minutes, if you want. Cut. Serve.
5
Opt. Dust with katakuriko or kinako to prevent mochi from sticking everywhere. If you don't have these, you can just put the mochi on cellophane.
6
Variations for Filling: You can add red bean paste, ice cream, chocolate, etc. in the middle if you want BEFORE you dust. add a teaspoon of filling and pinch edges closed.
7
Variations for Dough: Add a few drops of food coloring into batter for color variation. A few drops of flavoring (strawberry, grape, orange, blueberry, etc.) may also be added. >> For chocolate flavor, stir about 1/4 cup melted chocolate chips into mochi batter before cooking.

Thank you for this recipe! It is so easy and it can be tweaked for anyone's liking. I used coconut in mine after reading it in another recipe. I use 2 parts flour, 2 parts liquid (coconut milk, water, evaporated milk, etc), and 1 part sugar. I also add butter and rum flavoring to mine. Very tasty! It's even easier to microwave in a ceramic casserole dish with a glass lid so there's no messing with/wasting of plastic wrap. The one thing that bothers me is that no matter what I do it still has a floury flavor.

This is the easiest recipe i have seen for mochi. It works very well and dosen't have the kneading and watching that others do. Now, if only someone could tell me how to get it into neat balls without it sticking to everything and how to get it off walls and ceilings.

This is a very simple and versatile recipe. If you plan to stuff it with filling, it is very sticky to handle, especially when it is warm/hot. Just have to be patient and dust it with the potato starch after filling each one. I tried filling them with peanut butter. It was awesome! And will try other fillings such as strawberry jam and red bean paste, etc. Thank you for this great recipe. I can now make it whenever I feel like having mochi.
