Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix glutinous rice flour and salt, then add warm water to form a smooth dough.

  2. 2

    Divide into 30 g portions, shape into balls, and flatten into small pancakes.

  3. 3

    Heat a pan on low, add oil, and cook pancakes slowly on both sides.

  4. 4

    Before the top sets, place petals and gently press to secure.

  5. 5

    Cook until lightly golden, then serve with honey and pine nuts.

Tips

High heat burns the outside while leaving the inside gummy; keep heat low.
Dry petals thoroughly to prevent splattering in the pan.
