Soak the moong beans in water for 30 minutes; drain. Roll the kaffir
leaves into thin cigarettes; slice into slivers. In a mortar pound the
drained moong beans to form a paste.  Add the other ingredients in turn,
stirring well.  Pluck a small piece of the paste and form into a ball the
size of a walnut.  Do not mould too tightly. Deep-fry the balls until
golden brown, drain and serve with the thick sweet sauce below.
THE SAUCE: Gently heat the three ingredients until the sugar dissolves.
Allow to cool before serving.
