Prepare the ingredients: one pound of pumpkin.
Accessories: 1 pound of glutinous rice flour, 30 grams of sugar, appropriate amount of red bean filling.
The first step in making pumpkin cake: first clean the pumpkin, remove the old skin on the surface and the pulp inside the pumpkin (the silk inside the pumpkin must be removed, otherwise it will greatly affect the taste), cut into slices and put them on a plate (the thinner they are, the more they will be steamed)
The faster. There is no fixed time here).
Step 2: Turn on the stove and light the fire, add water and a steamer basket to the pot, put the pumpkin into the high heat, steam until the pumpkin becomes soft and then scoop it out (this step takes about ten minutes), then pour out the excess water in the pumpkin (
Pumpkin itself contains water, which is enough for glutinous rice flour to absorb).
Step 3: Mash while hot, add appropriate amount of white sugar, stir evenly, add glutinous rice flour (be careful not to add it all at once, but add it several times to better control the amount of glutinous rice flour), and then knead it with your hands until smooth
Knead the dough until the surface is smooth and not sticky, seal it with plastic wrap, and let it rise for ten minutes (the purpose of rising is to make the pumpkin pie more elastic).
Step 4: Take out a small piece of rested dough, knead it into a ball, flatten it, and wrap it with red bean filling (you can add your own stuffing, such as sesame filling, brown sugar filling, white sugar filling, etc., but it must be slightly
sweet filling).
Then close your mouth, pinch, circle, and flatten.
At this time, the pumpkin pie is ready.
the fifth step.
Finally, open the oil pan, turn off the heat when the oil temperature reaches 50%, then put the pumpkin cakes in one by one, fry until soaked, then fry over high heat until crispy, then take it out and control the oil content.
By this time, they will smell nice and delicious.
