Tao Sar Piah 101


One day not too long ago when I was feeling hungry, I made tao sar piah with OF using a recipe I found online.  Chinatown sells the same thing at 12 piahs for $5 but I was trying to save money.  It is only 25 cents each in Singapore and you can buy one big box for $10 SGD?

Started with the dough

Cut the dough evenly and roll it into balls

Cooking the green bean filling
2 different sets of dough - oily and the not-so-oily
Did some fancy rolling to combine the dough before adding the filling
There!  One batch
Make it all shiny and pro-looking with egg yolk glaze
Towards the end... Out of shape piahs
DONE!!!  Yum!

The filling...
Purin likes it too!
Smells nice!
Happy Purin!  
Purin wants more!

We finally finished making the ~50 tao sar piahs at 7am in the morning.  We started at 10pm or so.  Looks much more difficult than it seems...
