Tau Sah Piah (Mung Bean cookies)










Since migrated to United States, I've missed a lot of Malaysian good foods especially this Tau Sah Piah is one of my very favorite, I can easily gobble many pieces at a time....very scary!

This is not a complicated cookies to make but indeed is time consuming.


Recipe sauce : Nasilemaklover

Fillings:
400g mung bean (soak overnight and steam it until soft)
1 1/2 tsp of white pepper
2 tsp salt
250g sugar
2 tbsp cooking oil and 10 shallots (thinly sliced, fry & grind it)

Dough A :
125g flour
35g shortening
35g cooking oil

Dough B :
250g sifted flour
1/2 tsp sugar
65g shortening
120ml water

Method :

Cook the steamed mash mung bean with all the filling ingredients together in a non stick pan until it would be able to form a ball, remove from heat then add in the fried shallot and mix well completely. Divide the filling into 34 portions.

Prepare the dough A & B the same method in a separate bowl. Mix all the prepared ingredients together and set aside for 20 mins. Divide the dough A & B into 34 portions.

Wrap dough A with dough B then roll it out a long rectangle shape, later roll up the dough like a Swiss roll, repeat this step twice.

After repeated the step, roll a circle of a dough, put the filling and bring together all the edges, seal it and egg wash it.

Put into the preheated oven 350°F and bake for 28mins (temperature depend on individual oven).
