Sweet potato and sticky bean buns

Overview

When I visited the New Year market, I saw sticky bean buns for sale, both white and yellow. The yellow ones are made from yellow rice noodles and they looked very good. We don’t have yellow rice noodles at home, but we have sweet potatoes. Even if we use sweet potatoes to make sticky bean buns, they are also yellow. A very delicious and healthy sticky bean bun.
