Steps

30 - 40min

1

Sieve 3 cups of rice flour, then grind the dry ingredients to powder
2

Then mix the above
3

Add the hot water, 1 cup at a time to form a dough (make sure it's kneaded well)
4

Mould into balls
5

Boil water in a pot, on medium heat, drop the balls and allow to boil for 30 minutes. To check whether done, you can carry a ball slice open to see if the middle is cooked, if not allow it to cook for few minutes....
6

Remove from heat, keep the hot water used to boil the balls because you will use it to soften during grinding
7

Grind for a while, then stop
8

Add some hot water to soften (to attain the consistency you want) and continue to grind until no lumps. If you don't have a grinder you can use the pestle and mortar or food processor
9

Then shape into balls once more and dust with some rice flour to avoid sticking.
10

Our Fura balls ready, you can keep in fridge if not ready for use.
