mini pumpkin kuih

green bean paste in a round shaped

after steaming

In order for me to recycle the leftover green bean paste from the previous recipe. I have decided to make this mini pumpkin kuih... its kind of fun to experience something different. Its a very sticky situation and kind of oily too. If it is a bit more sweet then it will be great.. as the green bean a bit bare... as its not too sweet so its taste is not as wonderful.. welll, always learn from experience..

Ingredient


300g pumpkin


200g glutinous rice flour


60g corn flour


20 pieces cloves (since i dun have it, i used the crushed walnut)


1 tbsp oil


banana leaf (if have better, me... too smart use paper cup.. so become sticky situation)





As for the filling... pls. refer to the previous recipe (thailand bean paste fruits)





Method


1. steam pumpkin till cooked and mashed it. make sure drain all the water out if not the paste will be a bit watery.


2. add in glutinous rice flour, corn flour and oil, knead to form a dough


3. divide the green bean paste into 20 small portion, mould it round.


4. divide the dough evenly in 20 small portion. flatten the dough and wrap in fillings. use the back of knife to slice a few lines or maybe use the Satay stick to make the cross lines. stick in the upper part with the clove or the walnut. (for decoration only)


5. Base a banana leaf onto a tray.(really a better choice, i believed). put it inot steamer and steam over medium heat for 5 to 8 minuts. remove and serve.
