Lotus seed paste filling

Prepare the ingredients.

Clean the lotus seeds.

Add an appropriate amount of water and put it into the pressure cooker.

Press to cook (for one hour).

Cooked lotus seeds are pressed through a sieve into a fine paste (this reduces the moisture, making it easier to fry later and saving a lot of time; at this step, you can also add water and use a blender to make a puree).

Put the lotus seed paste into the pot and stir-fry to remove moisture. Add 150 grams of oil in three portions, adding the next portion only after the previous one is fully absorbed.

Add sugar and stir-fry evenly.

Add maltose and keep stirring and frying.

Finally, the lotus seed paste should not stick to the pot and spatula.

Alright 😁.
