Yes. Just scale the ratio of the skin and the filling according.

Hi Zong Han.,
I just curious .. No bake no oven.,. and we can eat like that ?( meaning : is raw )

The KouFen is glutinous rice flour that has been fried already. So it is ‘cooked’. 🙂

Hi.
For Koufen, can I stir fry from regular glutinous rice flour ?
Zong Han Chua
It is possible, however it can be easily burnt and I’m not too sure the right way of doing it.
