Paula saysI'd love to try that one too, since I have can of red bean paste, which may finally come in handy. But could you recommend alternative technique such as baking or something? I avoid deep-fries. Thanks in advance.

marianne49 saysYes you can also bake them since it made from pastry!! but if you like steaming it , you will have to use yeast dough to steam. I have that in my recipe here too.

well, paula, another alternative is to pan fry with little butter like a pancake or without butter, just greased the pan once. Brown on both side.
