1. Wash mung beans and soak them overnight. You can't soak for a long time, or you will grow buds (there will be buds at noon).
2. After a night, you can peel it the next morning. Rub, rub, rub, rub, rub with your hands, and the skin of mung beans will be removed. This process is very complicated and requires the greatest efforts and the longest time. A few pieces of skin were not cleaned, so the mung bean cake was mottled. Can be improved: buy peeled mung beans directly next time, there are many on the omnipotent Taobao.
3. The peeled mung bean is yellow and lovely. Steam them in a pressure cooker for ten minutes.
4. Crush the cooked mung beans with a spoon and press them into mud.
5. Pour salad oil (do not use scented oil such as peanut oil) into the pot, heat it, put the mung bean paste into the pot, reduce the heat and stir evenly. Put less oil, you will find that the green bean paste is still dry, then put oil, stir fry and add sugar. If you don't like sweets, put less sugar. Be careful, be sure to keep the fire small. When the fire is big, the mung bean paste will burn. You can fry it for a while, it will smell better.
6. Cool the fried green bean paste and add a spoonful of honey to increase the viscosity and umami. Stir well. At this time, the mung bean paste is yellow and dough-like, which can be shaped and will not be loose.
7. Rub the mung bean paste into a jiaozi the size of a dollar coin. I like to eat red bean paste, so I added red bean paste to my stomach. No need to add, the color will look better.
8. Put it into a mold and press it into the required shape. I use a common wooden mold on Taobao, which looks very literary, but demoulding is very troublesome, so I have to knock hard. Moreover, the hole on the side is the easiest to demould, and the hole in the middle is more laborious. Prepare for improvement: it may be easier to replace the extrusion die.
9. Summary: It is the first time to do it, and the peeling is not thorough, resulting in mottled color. The mold is not easy to demould and the shape is not very flat. But the taste is absolutely great, absolutely great. I don't want to buy the mung bean cake sold in the store after eating it. You will find, ah, that mung bean cake is delicious!
