Using a small cookie scoop, place about 1 tablespoon of dough into the hot oil. Fry for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown turning halfway through the cooking time. Remove poi mochi from hot oil and place on a paper towel to catch the excess oil. Cool ever so slightly and ENJOY! If you’ve never had poi mochi, you’re missing out.
Using a muffin pan, Spray each cup with mct oil or grease each tin with a light amount of ghee. Fill each cup with one layer of small mochi balls. It should be enough to cover the bottom of one of the cups. Brush the tops of the mochi with oil or ghee.
Mochi can come in all shapes and sizes. For this low carb hack, I chose mochi balls that had the least amount of ingredients. They have 5 basic ingredients; sweet rice, rice starch, water, salt, and tapioca. This also means they are vegan, gluten free, dairy free, and bulletproof.
Deep fried balls of sweet rice flour and poi, YUM YUM YUM. Heat cooking oil of choice to over medium high heat to about 350-375F. Meanwhile combine, poi, water, sugar, and mochiko flour. Mix until well combined.
