How to Make Vietnamese Husband And Wife Cake Banh Phu The
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup of water, 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, ½ cup of granulated sugar, and ½ cup of shredded coconut. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 10-12 minutes, until the mixture thickens into a smooth dough.
- In a separate pot, cook 1 cup of dried mung beans with 2 cups of water until tender (about 45-60 minutes). You may need to add more water during cooking. Drain well.
- Return the cooked mung beans to the pot. Add ¼ cup of granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until most of the liquid has evaporated (about 10-15 minutes). Stir in ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract (or other desired flavoring) and remove from heat.
- Grease small individual molds or cupcake tins (approximately 2-inch diameter).
- Place a thin layer (about 1 tablespoon) of the prepared dough in each mold.
- Top with a small spoonful (about 1 tablespoon) of the mung bean paste.
- Cover with another thin layer of dough, sealing the edges gently.
- Steam the cakes for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is translucent and cooked through.
- Carefully remove the cakes from the molds and let them cool completely before serving. Enjoy with a cup of green tea!
