Pan fried red bean paste cakes 豆沙煎軟餅



I have another portion of this lo mai chee dough and some red bean paste sitting in the fridge need using. I made some fried soft cakes (dou sa jin yuen bing 豆沙煎軟餅) . If you like jin dui 煎堆 you probably like these little soft and chewy cakes. It has the same taste as jin dui only softer and less oily.Very very simple to make when I have the dough and bean paste all ready. Use the same quantity of dough and bean paste as the lo mai chee. Makes 12 small cakesFollow the same recipe for lo mai chee up to wrapping and forming the ball. Then gently press the ball to a flat cake, sandwich between both hands. Be careful not the split the edge, try to use gentle fingers pressure from the centre and outwards. Coat one side of each cake with raw sesame seeds.Pan fried with a little oil, fry the sesame seeds side first for few minutes on medium low heat till golden, flip over and fry the other side to golden and crisp.Serve hot.

Here is another request from a reader for a recipe.Yeung Ji Gum Lo 楊枝甘露 is a cold Chinese dessert created by some Hong Kong restaurant in the '80. It's quite a refreshing dessert soup which is creamy, sweet and fragrant from mango and pomelo. Very simple to make, all you need is gather the ingredients and mix everything together. The key ingredients are mango, pomelo, sago pearls, mango ice cream and cream/milk.In Hong Kong you can get Mango icecream easily but may be a bit difficult in UK. If you can find some that is great if not can use mango sorbet. Otherwise just use a good vanilla icecream with ripe mango puree.Pomelo is an oriental large grapefruit. In Chinese it is called 柚子 (yu z i). You can find this citrus fruit from Autumn to Winter in most Chinese supermarkets.
