  Mix the flour with the potatoes

  Add 330g of tapioca flour and 70g of rice flour to the potatoes, mix well while the potatoes are still hot.

  Add 1 bowl of hot water (about 100ml) and mix together, knead for about 30 minutes until the dough is no longer sticky to the hands.

  Note: You should gradually pour the water in while kneading to adjust the amount of flour to the right consistency; not too dry or too wet.

  Shape the tapioca noodles

  You roll the dough flat, then use a knife to cut it into long strands, about 1/2 finger width, or cut it according to your preference.

  Tips for easy cutting without sticking

  • Sprinkle a little tapioca starch over the kneaded dough; the starch will help prevent the dough from sticking and make it easier to cut.
  • Dust the cutting tools and surfaces that contact the dough with tapioca starch before cutting. Whenever you feel the dough sticking, sprinkle more starch on it.
