Directions

  1. First, pour the flour into a bowl. ≈ 3 min
  2. Place the container on a low heat source and allow it to simmer gently.

  4. Next, add the rice flour and mix well. ≈ 4 min
  5. Try to sift the flour. ≈ 2 min
  6. While you’re doing that, prepare the cake syrup by bringing it to a boil over medium heat.
  7. Once the syrup has come to a boil, turn off the heat.
  8. Next, add the flour and butter. ≈ 3 min
  9. Once the mixture starts to thicken, similar to how you would make a pancake, you’ll notice that you no longer need to add any flour. ≈ 3 min
  10. Cook it for a few minutes on each side.
  11. Remove the container from the heat source and add the syrup to the already cooked flour. ≈ 3 min
  12. Stir quickly until the mixture is uniform. ≈ 4 min
