The method of yam cake

Step 1: Prepare ingredients: yam, red beans, sugar, starch, red dates, etc. Soak yam in water, clean the soil on the surface, clean the roots on the surface of yam, prepare a steamer, add a proper amount of clear water into it, separate the water with tools, put yam in the steamer and steam it. If it can be punctured with a gentle poke with chopsticks, you can take it out and crush it with a spoon for later use. Soak the red beans in water, rub them with your hands several times, then change the water in the basin and soak them for one hour.

Step 2: Soak the red dates in water, clean them, steam them in a steamer, cut them with a knife, take out the kernels inside and throw them away. Chop them up with a knife, the better, and cut them for later use. Take out the soaked red beans, drain the water and put them in a bowl for later use, prepare a pot, put the red beans in the pot, add appropriate amount of clear water, bury the red beans, heat and cook with a fire, wash the pot and burn oil, add a small amount of oil to the pot, put the prepared white sugar into the pot, turn it over with a shovel, and turn the fire to low heat until the sugar water in the pot melts.

Step 3: Take out the cooked red beans, put them in a pot to cool, then put them in a pot to stir fry until the sugar water in the pot is dry, turn off the fire, use the preheating in the pot, and continue turning with a spatula until the surface of the red beans is covered with a layer of syrup. At this time, take out the red beans, put the yam, red beans and red dates into a pot, crush them all with a spoon, blend with each other, and add a proper amount of starch.

Step 4: Mix and knead the ingredients into a ball, prepare your favorite mold, put the mixed ingredients such as yam paste into the mold, print your favorite shape, prepare a steamer, add a proper amount of water into it, put the cakes into a plate, and steam the plate in the steamer for five minutes, which doesn't take long, because the ingredients are mature.
