Ratings : ★★★★
Price: $5
Comments: The food is eaten especially for New Year's celebrations. As the dough
fries, it expands. Therefore, the Chinese believe if you eat sesame balls, your
fortunes will expand similarly. Many of us adore it. First, it is fried golden
brown and looks attractive. Second, it is both crisp and chewy from the glutinous
rice flour. We have some other variations. We also have red bean paste as the
filling. When cooked with sugar, tiny red beans take on a delicious flavour.
