How to cook

Prepare red bean paste

Divide red bean paste into small balls (10g each ball).
Flatten the ball and shape it to fit into the middle of the mooncakes.

Start cooking

In a separate pot, mix agar agar powder, water, coconut milk, and sugar. Cook over medium heat until it comes to a boil.
Add food colouring and mix well. Keep the mixture warm under low heat otherwise, it will harden.
Fill ¼ of the mould with the mixture and wait until it hardens (this will take around 3-5 minutes).
Place red bean paste in the center of the mould and fill up with agar mixture to cover the mould.
Place it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to set completely and serve chilled.
