Red Beans Dessert

Red Beans Dessert

Oh my, sorry! I got so excited, I finish without taking any picture of this dessert.

This time I want it really sweet, as my previous desserts I always make less sweet. Well, all these sweetness depends on your taste buds. Some people love to have really super sweet desert, just like my mom, she probably need like 5 teaspoon of sugar to make a cup of sweet drink or inform the cendol vendor to add extra sweet for her order but others might just take 2 teaspoons would be sufficient.

This is different from green beans. You must soak for longer hours. I soaked these organic red beans overnight about 16 hours. Because I did not want to waste time boil for too long. Soaking the beans longer would make them easier to be cooked. That is why I manage to finish up within an hour.

One thing you must take note when you soak the beans, if u start seeing tiny white tails on the beans, please remove them from the water and start cooking them, else you will have a whole bowl of sprouting red beans in the next few hours.

Ingredients

1 pack of Red Bean,

4 pandan leaves/ pandanus veitchii/screwpine

3 tablespoon of rock sugar

½ pack dry longan or 15 pieces

½ roll gula Melaka

Prepare & cook

Put in soaked red beans to pot

Add water, must about 2 inches above the red beans

Boil beans 20-30 minutes with 4 pandan leaves

Add 3 tablespoon of rock sugar

Add ½ pack dry longan or 15 pieces

Add ½ roll gula Melaka

Boil another 20 minutes

If it dries up, add ½ cup water

Taste the sweetness

If not sweet enough add more sugar,

Boil another 15minutes

Ready to serve

Check the beans texture to see if the beans are ready.

Hard and round = Not cooked, not ready to be eaten

Soft and open up/broken up = Cooked and ready to be eaten

For cold serving, you could cool down the red bean

Add in some ice cubes. This will dilute the liquid a little and make it watery.

Else you could cool down the red bean and put it in fridge for a little while, maybe 30 minutes.
