Heavenly Danpatjuk (Sweet Red Bean Porridge)
This sweet Korean red bean porridge is perfect for a midday snack - even if you’re not searching for tiger spirits with IU in an episode of Hotel del Luna.

Instructions

Cook the Beans
- First, wash and pick through the adzuki beans discarding any that float.
- Place the beans in a saucepan with the first 500ml of water, and bring to a boil. After 5 mins, strain and wash the beans again.
- Return the beans to the pot with 1 litre of water and cook at a low simmer for at least 1.5 hrs or until the beans are tender.
- Leave the beans to cool.
-
Blend & Strain
- Using an immersion (hand blender), blend the beans until the mixture is quite fine but not pureed.
- Pass the mixture through a sieve, mashing through. Discard the solids.
- Add the glutinous rice flour to the 150ml of water, stir till dissolved, and add to the bean mixture.
- Return back to the pot, mix in the sugar, and heat gently for another 12 minutes.
- You may add more water and further blend with the immersion blender to achieve your desired consistency.
- Take off the heat while you make the rice cakes.
-
Make the Rice Cakes
- In a medium bowl, mix the glutinous rice flour, sugar and salt together.
- Pour in the warm water, stirring till pliable dough comes together.
- Knead for 5 minutes, then separate into 4 pieces. Roll each into a cylinder, and cut, or pinch off to shape into balls or discs at your preference.
- Bring a medium pot of water to the boil, then add the rice cakes, cooking till they float (about 2 mins). Remove from the pot with a slotted spoon. You may store them in clean water until using.
Plate and Serve!
