If you knead the dough with the right amount of force, it will become smooth, your hands will be clean, and the bowl will be clean. This will also make the pastries more chewy and delicious.
After kneading, Ye Ran divided the dough into small, evenly sized portions, then rolled them into round, plump cakes and placed them in a steamer.
Then Ye Ran started making sweet potato pancakes. Sweet potato pancakes are even simpler because sweet potatoes are naturally sweet, so you don't need to add anything else.
Ye Ran simply mixed glutinous rice flour and sweet potato puree together, added water and oil, and kneaded it. After kneading, she shaped it into small round cakes.
Then, pour a thin layer of oil into the pan and put the sweet potato cakes in one by one to fry over low heat. You must pay attention to the heat when frying, otherwise the sweet potato cakes will not cook through if the heat is not high enough, and if the heat is too high, the cakes will be fried dry and lose their soft, sweet and chewy texture.
It's best to fry it slowly over low heat until the outer skin is crispy and the inside is just right, so that it can be truly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sweet and delicious.
Although the steps were the same as in her previous life, Ye Ran added a little bit of dew to both the taro paste and sweet potato paste while making them, thinking that the taste should be even better than in her previous life.
Just as Ye Ran finished frying the sweet potato cakes, the taro cakes were also ready, filling the air with a wonderful aroma. Even Ye Ran couldn't help but swallow hard.
Ye Ran only made 20, so she resisted the urge to eat them. She secretly packed six taro cakes and six sweet potato cakes into a clean box, intending to use them for business the next day. Then she hung them in the water tank to prevent them from spoiling.
Then she picked up six more to have Lu Yi deliver to Grandma Ran and the others later.
The rest was for the family. Ye Ran took out a plate and served the snacks. Seeing that it was almost time, she quickly made a few corn pancakes, cooked a winter melon soup, and stir-fried a pumpkin vine, preparing to wait for her parents to come home for dinner.
She had just set the food on the table when Ye Jun and the others returned. "I could smell the delicious aroma from far away! Honey, what yummy food did you make today?"
"Today I made some corn pancakes, cooked a winter melon soup, and stir-fried a pumpkin vine."
Bai Yue twitched her nose slightly and sniffed gently. "Wait, this smells so sweet, what else could it be?"
Ye Ran playfully brought out a plate from behind, "Mom is amazing! Her nose is so sharp, I even made some extra snacks."
Bai Yue glanced at Ye Jun smugly, "Of course! Back in the day, what good food didn't your mother eat!"
Ye Jun looked at her with affection, "This is different, it was made by our daughter, it's bound to taste better! Let's eat! Dad can't wait any longer."
Ye Ran quickly placed the plate in front of them, looking at them expectantly.
"Oh my god, honey, this is so delicious! How did you make it?"
"Yes, daughter, how come your cooking skills have suddenly improved so much? These pastries are better than any I've ever had before!"
Ye Ran puffed out her chest with a hint of pride, "Delicious, isn't it! In the future, your daughter will make even more delicious food, just you wait and see!"
Ye Jun and Bai Yue couldn't help but nod expectantly, and the family finished their dinner in a harmonious atmosphere.
