What is Muah Chee

Muah Chee is a snack of glutinous rice balls coated in toasted peanuts. It originates in southern China, and can also be found in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan. This snack is common at any time of the day, and is often sold in recreational places such as at promenades and parks. The chewiness of the glutinous rice and the crunchiness of the toasted peanuts make muah chee a tasty and popular snack.

In making muah chee, the vendor slices a piece of glutinous rice dough which he minces into smaller pieces. To this he coats with grounded toasted peanuts. Over these he sprinkles some toasted sesame seeds and yew chang (fried shallots). Nowadays the muah chee is sold in styrofoam trays.
