How to make Bua Loi - Rice Balls in Warm Coconut Milk

24/1/2013

0 Comments

 
Bua Loi is a very popular dessert in Thailand. It consists of small colourful balls made of glutinous rice flour in warm coconut milk. You can find it in street stalls as well as in restaurants, but you might have to pre-order it if it's not on the regular menu. It is also very easy to make Bua Loi at home or at school, like we did yesterday. You will need the following ingredients for your first test batch.

  • 1 cup of glutinous rice flour per colour
  • 2 1/2 cups of coconut milk
  • 1-2 cups of palm sugar or white sugar, the amount depending on your taste
  • 1 teaspoon of salt or a bit more
  • Colouring such as pumpkin for yellow, pandan paste for green or just plain food colouring
  • Some water


How to do:
Start by preparing the colouring. Boil and mash the pumpkin and mix pandan paste with water.
Put 1 cup of glutinous rice flour in a bowl. Mix it with enough water and colouring to make a colourful dough.

The pumpkin is boiled and ready to be mashed to make the yellow dough.
Picture
Add flour into a bowl.
Picture
Add colouring, in this case the pandan paste and water.
Picture
Mix flour, colouring and water.
Picture
Kneed until the dough looks like this, then it is ready for the next step.
Picture
Roll each batch of dough separately, and shape it all into little marble-sized balls.
Picture
Roll the balls in flour so that they don't stick together.
Picture
Bring water to a boil and toss in the flour balls and boil until done. They will float to the surface.
Picture
Remove with a slotted spoon and rinse with cool water, drain and set aside.
Picture
Warm the coconut milk over low heat with palm sugar and salt. Raise the temperature and bring to a low boil. Add the cooked Bua Loi balls, stir gently and serve in individual bowls.

And enjoy!
If you want you can add slices of young coconut flesh and poached eggs boiled in sweet water to your Bua Loi dessert.

Every year Lanta International Language School joins the Children's Day activities on Koh Lanta. We play and practice English with the kids, cheer at their performances, hand out milk and toys and donate English books to the Thai schools. It's great fun and a perfect place to practice our Thai language skills. In 2013 Children's Day was  celebrated on January 12th and LILS took part in the activities in Pra Ae Park on Long Beach.

Five Fabulous Years!

10/1/2013

0 Comments

 
Five years ago Lanta Learning Centre turned into Lanta International Language School and started to teach Thai to foreigners. As the years have passed we have learned so much about how students learn languages and developed our own unique way of teaching Thai. 

The creative part has been fun but the best experiences of running a language school has been to get to know our students from around the world. As many of you come back year after year to continue your studies we feel more or less like family now.

We would like to thank everyone at LILS for five fabulous years and we are looking forward to another five great years to come!

Below are some photos of the celebration today.
