Preparation
Step 1
To prepare water dough: Mix well all ingredients and lightly knead for about 2 minutes until a non-sticky dough is formed. Leave the dough aside 15 minutes and go on to prepare oil dough.
Step 2
To prepare oil dough: Mix both ingredients together. Do not knead this dough.
Step 3
Divide water and oil dough in 5 portions.
Step 4
On a lightly floured surface, roll out a water dough. Wrap an oil dough with this water dough to form a ball. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to an oval shape. Roll the dough out and turn the dough by 90 degree to get a vertical position.
Step 5
Lightly flatten the standing dough and roll out the dough to an oval shape again. Roll up again. And repeat this step for one more time.
Step 6
Cut the dough into 2 portions. Place the cut side down, and flatten with palm of hand and roll out with rolling pin into a 2-inch round. Divide the filling into 10 portions.
Step 7
Wrap each bean paste portion with dough into ball shape. Place them on the baking tray and bake at preheated oven 350°F/175°C for 12-15 minutes.
