Ingredients :
- A big handful of dried snow fungus, washed and soaked in water to soften
- Barley seeds
- Red dates
- Dried longan
- Rock sugar
- Pandan leaves
Directions :
- Clean and soak the dried snow fungus in some water. Don’t use too much as it expands into quite a bit! Once it’s soft, cut it up into small bite-sized pieces.
- Put the barley seeds and pandan leaves to boil in about 1 medium sized pot of water. Skim the foam that collects at the top of the pot.
- Throw in a handful of red dates for sweetness and taste.
- Once it has boiled, turn the flame down to simmer and watch the barley seeds to make sure they don’t expand till they “explode”.
- Add your rock sugar to taste.
- When the barley seeds are cooked, add in your snow fungus and simmer just for a short while then turn off the flame.
- Add your dried longan and stir it through.
- And it’s ready to serve.
