NEW YEAR SNACK - Sesame Balls (芝麻煎堆)

Chinese Lunar New Year is coming soon, so today we are making fried sesame ball - 芝麻煎堆. This is a popular snack that we will make during the spring festival. My mom makes them every year. They are the best when nice and hot. It is like a deep-fried mochi ball. The outside is crispy, and the inside is soft and gooey. There is a lucky saying in Cantonese - 煎堆碌碌，金银满屋, which means with the sesame ball rolling and rolling, gold and cash will fill up your house. As a new year item, this little snack carries our best wishes, and I wish you and your family a safe, healthy, and happy new year. 🥢BUY MY WOK USA - CANADA - AUSTRALIA - EU (Just Launched!!) - Rest of the World (including UK) - 🥢PRINTABLE RECIPE - 🥢MY AMAZON INFLUENCER/AFFILIATE PAGE -
