Ingredients
Steps
-
Wash and cut the purple sweet potato and iron yam and steam them in a pot
-
Peel the yam after steaming (remember to wear disposable gloves if you have sensitive skin)
-
The outer skin of purple sweet potato is also removed
-
Put the peeled yam into a plastic bag and use a rolling pin to press it into a puree
-
In order to achieve fineness, I also sieve it through a sieve after pressing
-
Directly sift the purple sweet potato through a sieve into puree
-
After sifting everything, use the mooncake mold to press out the flower shape according to your favorite ratio
-
I use a 3:1 ratio of yam: purple sweet potato. You can also use half purple sweet potato and half yam to press out the pattern!

Since no sugar is added to this recipe, adding sugared osmanthus makes it even more fragrant!
