anko dango

Deliciously chewy Dango are a quick and easy treat you can make in minutes. Japanese anko (sweet red bean paste) brings in the sweetness to complement the cute little rice flour dumplings perfectly.

Dango Recipe with Anko (Sweet Red Bean Paste)

glutinous rice flour

½ tbsp water (room temperature or luke warm)

tbsp sweet red bean paste (anko)

Bring a small pot of water to the boil. In a medium bowl, add your glutinous rice flour and water and mix until combined. It should start sticking to the spoon / your hand and coming away from the sides of the bowl.

At this point, use your hands to bring the dough together into a big soft ball. It should feel soft and smooth ‘like your ear lobes’.

Next form them into balls shapes around 2 cm / 1 inch in diameter. Use ‘soft hands’ here for a nice round shape.

Pop in boiling water and cook until they start to float (3-5 minutes).

Remove from hot water into a bowl of cold water to stop them cooking further and cool them down.

Once cooled, place three dango on a wooden bamboo stick and top with anko (sweet red bean paste). Enjoy!
