Ingredients
Steps
-
Pour the plain flour into a large bowl.
-
Add an appropriate amount of cooking oil, a little salt to increase the gluten of the dough, and 10 grams of sugar.
-
Pour 85 grams of warm water and stir with chopsticks to form a fluffy consistency.
-
Knead the dough into a smooth dough, cover it with a lid or plastic wrap, seal it and let it rest for 20-30 minutes. If the weather is cold, let it rest longer.
-
Cook the sweet potatoes whole and then peel them. Sweet potatoes that are boiled whole and then peeled have low water content and are relatively chewy when used as fillings. I have tried peeling and slicing them before steaming them, but found that the water content was too high and the fillings were not chewy enough.
-
While hot, press into sweet potato puree.
-
Add 20 grams of sugar and 10 grams of condensed milk, mix well.
-
Then knead it into a mashed potato ball of about 40 grams.
-
Pinch it as tightly as possible.
-
The risen dough is very soft. First roll it into a long strip, then match the number of mashed potato balls and cut it into evenly sized dough.
-
Knead each piece of dough into a smooth round dough.
-
Take out the first piece of dough and roll it out with a rolling pin into a thick middle and thin edge (like rolling out dumpling wrappers).
-
Take a mashed potato ball and slowly close it.
-
Form into a large round dough.
-
Press it with the palm of your hand and roll it out a few times with a rolling pin to form a dough about 1.5 cm thick.
-
Heat the electric baking pan and brush it with a little oil.
-
Arrange the cake base and brush a little water on the dough.
-
Sprinkle a little bit of white sesame seeds and black sesame seeds, and press lightly to make the sesame seeds stick firmly.
-
Cover and cook for 3 minutes.

Turn over and continue cooking for 3 minutes.

When baking, be sure to bake both sides as golden as possible. .

The skin is thin, the fillings are rich, and the sesame flavor is rich.

The materials and operation are simple, so let’s give it a try.
