Red Bean Paste

Red Bean Paste

Ingredients:
300g Red Bean (soaked for 8 hours) - I didn't and cooked longer :P
150g Sugar
650g Water
40g Oil (I used Extra Virgin Olive Oil, but kind of quite strong taste of it)

Method:

1) Cook Red Bean and Water for 30mins (I added 15mins as I didn't pre-soak the beans)/ 100°C/ Spd 2.
Add sugar at remaining of 5mins.


2) Leave for 1 hour (again, I didn't wait :P)

3) Add oil and cook for another 30mins / 100°C/ Spd 2.

4) After cooking, I pulverised it (Spd 8) and cook for another 2mins, adding about a pinch or lesser of salt, as I think it as quite sweet


See first picture. It looks as though we have cleaned up the TM bowl, but with a quick spin to Spd 7-10 for 2secs, you can see on 2nd picture that there is still some paste stuck underneath the blade. I repeated twice. All clean, less wastage :)


Red Bean Paste done! Easy easy job, no tired arms busy stirring over super hot wok and risk of burning the paste. I guess the olden days, they don't add salt into the paste as they'll probably added it naturally... their sweat! Sorry for that kind of imagination.. Yewwww...

With Thermomix, less worries :)

  2. Thanks oh. I got tired asking for recipes when I first use my Thermomix. Ended up creating recipes from anywhere I can get online :) Normally from non Thermomix page. You all should do that too :) By the way, your Red Bean Ice Cream looks super duper delicious.......... I can almost taste it from the screen.... drool drool ^_^
