Brown sugar and red bean paste
Overview
I like mooncakes made with red bean filling, but I don’t really like white sugar. Besides, brown sugar is a little healthier than white sugar. I like to use brown sugar to make bean paste filling. If you like bean paste filling, you might as well try this brown sugar bean paste, it tastes good. I purposely didn’t use a mixer to mix it today, but the taste is still delicate enough. To make good bean paste mooncakes, the filling is very important. It cannot be too dry, otherwise the taste will be bad. It must not be too watery, otherwise it will not shape well. It must be oily but not greasy. The bean paste filling made according to my method and recipe is guaranteed to meet the above requirements. The made bean paste mooncakes will taste very good. Try it!

Ingredients
Steps
-
Soak the red beans in water in advance until the beans can be easily crushed, making them easier to cook. You can add water and use a pressure cooker for 10 minutes, or you can cook them for about half an hour. When I steamed the ribs, I steamed them in a steamer for 40 minutes so as not to waste energy. The beans were steamed badly.
-
Very rotten beans, do not use a food processor, just use a slotted spoon to crush them. The beans pressed in this way are very dry and will be fried quickly. Because the cooking machine requires some soup, it will be thinner and will take longer to fry.
-
Add the crushed beans to the wok and add the brown sugar.
-
It is best to use a non-stick pan, which will not stir the pan and makes it easy to fry, or you can use a stainless steel pan. Do not use an iron pan, otherwise it will be very laborious. Fry the brown sugar until it melts,
-
Continue to stir-fry over low heat until the bean paste becomes dry and forms a ball. Pour in the peanut oil in 3 batches, letting the oil be completely absorbed by the bean paste each time before putting it down again. If you like a creamy flavor, you can use butter.
-
After the oil has been absorbed, add the cake powder. The cake powder is cooked glutinous rice flour. If not, just fry the glutinous rice flour.
-
Stir-fry until the cake powder and bean paste are completely mixed. At this time, the bean paste filling will be very dry and is just right for making mooncakes. This kind of red bean paste is just right for making bread.
