Steps

1

Coat the egg yolk with rice wine and let sit for 10 minutes. Put the egg yolks in a shallow bake ware and air fry at 380F (190C) for about 3-4 minutes.
2

Put all other ingredients in a mixing bowl. Mush and mix all ingredients until the texture is dough like and without lumps. Alternatively, a food processor can be used as well.
3

When done, divide this taro dough into 6 equal portions and roll them into round balls. Flatten each ball and put an egg yolk in the middle. Wrap the dough around the egg yolk and roll it into a ball again, making sure there are no cracks or opening.
4

Line the fryer basket with grill mat or a lightly greased aluminum foil.
