【Sichuan】Dried potato, preserved fruit, brown sugar and eight-treasure rice
Overview
A must-have for the New Year, as a comprehensive improvement of sweet roasted white rice and eight-treasure rice, it will appear on the New Year's Eve dinner table once every year. I make it every year and eat it every year, but I already feel like I can’t do anything else. Nuts and dried fruits are always available, and there is no difference when they come and go, and the changes in patterns seem to be unparalleled. Just when he was at the end of his game, he suddenly remembered that bag of dried sweet potatoes that were a little hard. A light suddenly came on. Scour out all the dried fruits in stock, and this year I will have dried fruits and dried potatoes. Instead of steaming the glutinous rice and then mixing it with sugar, the sugar is directly dissolved into rice soaking water and steamed together. After steaming, the sweetness and color of brown sugar are naturally absorbed into the glutinous rice. There is no pre-conceived and designed pattern, just do it randomly. In the end, it became a hemisphere surrounded by three layers of dried potatoes, with raisins at the bottom as a surprise at the end. The red bean paste is in the middle, this is the old rule. After steaming, the color of the dried potatoes becomes brighter, and the deep sugar-colored glutinous rice is embedded with three golden rings. Unexpected effect, finally completed the task. . . The portions are just right and you can eat it in one go. . .
