This version of purple sweet potato pancakes or glutinous rice cake are quite similar to my recipe of Chinese pumpkin pancakes that I have shared before. For this recipe, I made the purple sweet potato filling from scratch which can be easily done at home. These purple sweet potato pancakes are a little chewy and crisp on the outside after pan-fried. Just perfect as an afternoon healthy snack or for breakfast.

- 250 g purple sweet potato
- 2.5 tbsp honey
- 1.5 tbsp corn oil
Dough skin
- 200 g glutinous rice flour
- 150-180 ml water - room temperature

Alternatively, you can also use a fork to mash the sweet potato till very fine Then add in the honey and corn oil together and knead till combined. Leave mixture to cool completely
- Divide sweet potato dough into 10 to 11 small balls, about 10 grams each and set aside.

- Wrap the dough with sweet potato paste inside and roll into a round ball. Then gently flatten it with your palm or rolling pin between plastic sheets to a round disc. Coat and gently press both sides with white sesame seeds.
- Then pan fry the pancakes with oil under medium low heat on both sides for about 2-3 minutes till cooked.

- 将紫薯球包在面团里,搓圆。放在2长朔胶纸中间,用手掌或擀面棍轻轻的压扁,成为圆饼状。两面沾上白芝麻,再用手轻轻地按压一下,使小圆饼表面上的芝麻更牢固。
