Matcha Red Bean Muah Chee

This idea striked me on Saturday morning, a new flavour for muah chee using ingredients that I already have in my kitchen. My mind got busy after that to think through the process of making it works after I have decided on the flavour.

Here it is, my new flavour:


Ingredients
1 cup glutinous rice flour
3/4 cup water
1/2 tsp baking green tea powder
About 3-4 tbsp red bean paste
1 tsp shallot oil
Peanut powder (with sugar) for coating

Appliance used
Happycall pan (hcp)

Methods
  1. Mix the first 3 ingredients in a cup or bowl until no lump.
  2. Roll the red bean paste into a long dough using cling wrap as long as the length of hcp, set aside. You could adjust the paste quantity according to your preference, but I would recommend a thin dough.
  3. Heat up hcp with shallot oil, slowly pour the batter and make sure it covers the entire pan.
  4. Once the batter sets from the sides, place the red bean paste on top of the batter and use tongs to start wrapping the paste.
  5. Once the batter is cooked, remove from hcp and coat with peanut powder.
  6. Cut the coated muah chee into small pieces and serve.
Pictures speak a thousand words, here are the photos taken during the cooking process:


Where to purchase the ingredients?
Red bean paste - I got mine from Phoon Huat at $7.50 for one kg. Too big a pack? Alternatively you could try Daiso for it's 200g pack.
Baking green tea powder - From Phoon Huat too, comes in a bottle.
Peanut powder - This is from supermarket, there are few brands to select from. Mine is Camel brand and it comes with sugar.
