Steps

  1. Soak mung beans overnight, for more than 10 hours

  2. Peeling is a very time-consuming and tiring process. The second time I did it, I just bought peeled mung beans

  3. Steam the peeled mung beans in a steamer. You can add some water according to the amount of mung beans, but don't add too much, otherwise the mung bean puree will be too thin and difficult to shape! I usually steam for 50 minutes, adding water to the steamer twice in the middle to prevent the water from evaporating. If it breaks into pieces when pressed with a small spoon, there is no need to steam

  4. Put sugar in the steamed mung beans, press it down with a spoon, then take a fresh-keeping bag, pour the mung beans in, and use a rolling pin to compact it back and forth, so that the mung bean puree will be more delicate

  5. Put butter in a pan, turn on low heat, when the butter melts, pour in the mung bean puree, stir-fry continuously, then add condensed milk, and continue to stir-fry until the mung bean puree becomes dry, but must not be mushy. This is also the most tiring step. My arms are sore from cooking!
