Red Bean Sweet Soup with ‘Nian Ko’ ~ 红豆年糕糖水
Wednesday, May 27, 2015 17:07
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
I’m a fan of Red Bean Sweet Soup aka ‘Hoong Tau Sar’ but this time I added in some bits of Chinese New Year ‘Nian ko’ on the recommendation of a friend. I’m glad that I’ve found another way to make use of this ‘Nian ko’ other than the usual way of deepfrying them with sweet potato and taro. This is a delicious dessert which can be served at any time of the day and I enjoy mine, served warm!
