Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Rinse the brown rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- Place the rinsed rice in a pot with double the amount of water (about 2 cups).
- Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all water is absorbed.
- Once cooked, remove the pot from heat and let the rice cool slightly.
- While the rice is cooling, heat 1 tsp of coconut oil in a pan over medium heat.
- Add the finely chopped shallots and sauté until they become translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the turmeric powder and chili powder, cooking for an additional minute, ensuring the spices are well combined with the shallots.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled brown rice, dried coconut meat, sautéed shallots with spices, peanut butter, and soy sauce.
- Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Using your hands, take small portions of the mixture (about 1-2 tablespoons) and roll them into bite-sized balls.
- Place the formed balls on a tray lined with parchment paper or a plate.
- After forming all the bliss balls, place the tray or plate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow them to firm up.
- Just before serving, roll or sprinkle the bliss balls with the finely chopped coriander leaves for a fresh, vibrant finish.
- These satay brown rice bliss balls can be enjoyed as a snack, appetizer, or even a part of a light meal. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Tips:
- Make sure to cook the brown rice thoroughly to achieve a chewy texture for the bliss balls.
- If you prefer a milder flavor, you can reduce the amount of chili powder in the recipe.
- For a smoother texture, blend the mixture in a food processor until well combined before forming the balls.
- Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before rolling into balls to make them easier to handle.
- Feel free to experiment with additional ingredients such as minced garlic or grated ginger to enhance the flavor profile.
