Red Bean Glutinous Rice Balls

🌕It was 冬至Winter Solstice a few days back and we had 汤圆 glutinous rice balls. My mum did it a little differently this year, boiling the 🍲 with gula melaka instead of rock sugar. It worked well with the pandan leaves and ginger to give it a little peranakan twist.

Found the red bean filling to be rather thin and bland. The sesame filling was much better. 🌕

The taste of the red bean filling was rather mild. Goes well with crushed peanuts. 

Usually my family will buy at least 2 different filling! Red bean paste I felt a bit sweet 😳
Hahaha 😝
