Step 1
In a bowl, mix 1 cup rice flour with 0.75 cup water until a soft dough forms. If too sticky, add a little more flour.
Step 2
Divide dough into 8 balls. Press a small indentation in each, fill with 0.25 cup palm sugar (grated or chopped), and seal tightly.
Step 3
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Drop in the balls and cook until they float to the surface, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.
Step 4
Roll the cooked balls in 0.5 cup coconut flakes while still warm. Serve immediately.
