Step 1
Mix glutinous rice flour, water, and salt in a bowl until a smooth dough forms.
Step 2
Roll small portions (marble-sized) between your palms to form balls. Set aside on a plate.
Step 3
Bring 3 cups water to a boil in a medium pot. Add palm sugar and stir until dissolved.
Step 4
Add pandan leaves and reduce heat to medium. Simmer for 5 minutes to infuse flavor.
Step 5
Gently drop glutinous balls into the simmering broth. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Cook for 8–10 minutes until the balls float and become translucent.
Step 7
Stir in coconut milk and salt. Heat through without boiling, about 2–3 minutes.
Step 8
Remove pandan leaves. Ladle into bowls and garnish with crushed peanuts and sesame seeds.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature.
