I saw netizens saying that they couldn’t eat fresh meat mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which made cats overflow with motherly love and had nowhere to express it. Isn’t it just fresh meat mooncakes? My dear, if you can’t buy them, let’s make them ourselves and have enough food and clothing~
This time Mao will try his best to write down the process of making fresh meat mooncakes in detail. Questions are welcome and I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!!!
Preparation materials:
Minced meat (pork or beef is acceptable), flour (the most common flour is sufficient), eggs, oil (if you are not afraid of obesity, you can use lard or butter, which will be very fragrant; if you are afraid of obesity, you can use olive oil or other vegetable oils) )
Excipients:
Yellow wine (if you don’t have rice wine, you can use red wine or white wine), onion and ginger (you can use pepper or minced garlic instead), salt, sugar, soy sauce (if you don’t have soy sauce, add more salt)
Step 1: Prepare materials
Eggs are divided into yolks and egg whites
Minced meatPut rice wine, onion, ginger, salt, sugar, soy sauce, and egg white, and stir thoroughly (use your arm strength, and don’t stop mixing for 10 minutes, the minced meat will become very Q)
Put a small amount of salt in the flour and divide it into two equal parts - add water and oil to one part (the ratio of water and oil is 2:1); add only oil to one part - knead two pieces respectively. For dough, we call the former dough and the latter dough. PS, as for how much oil and water to put in total, you can just knead the dough according to the situation and make it non-sticky.
Step 2: Wake up
Put the kneaded dough into separate bags (to prevent the dough from drying out) and let it rest for an hour. You can watch an episode of TV series~~~
Put the mixed meat sauce and remaining egg yolks into the refrigerator for later use.
Step 3: Knead the dough
Divide the dough into small pieces and roll them into balls. One row is for dough and the other is for pastry.
Step 4: Wrap the puff pastry
Put the oil noodles outside and wrap the pastry inside, just like making glutinous rice balls
At first glance, it looks like a row of glutinous rice balls o(╯□╰)o
The fifth step, wake up for the second time
Roll out the wrapped dough
Roll up
Cover with plastic wrap (also to prevent the dough from drying out) and let it rest for 15 minutes
The sixth step, wake up for the third time
Repeat the above steps of rolling out, rolling up, covering with plastic wrap, and resting for 15 minutes
Step 7: Stuffing
Knead the dough into a round shape and set aside. Take out the meat sauce from the refrigerator and wrap the meat in the dough
At first glance, it looks a bit like a steamed bun. If you don’t know how to make steamed buns, you can use the method of making glutinous rice balls, just wrap the meat in them
Step 8: Preheat the oven to 180° and bake for 30 minutes
Put greaseproof paper on the baking sheet and place the dough with the seam of the dough facing down. (If you don’t have an oven, you can use a pan and fry it on both sides with a little oil)
Step 9: Brush with egg yolk
Dear, do you still remember the little egg yolk next to the meat sauce~~~
Ten minutes before the mooncakes are about to come out of the oven (20 minutes into baking), brush the surface of the mooncakes with a small brush
(If you don’t have a special brush, use a spoon or paw, don’t use a brush that has been used for painting~~~)
In fact, brushing egg yolk is mainly for the color to look good. If you don’t care about the appearance, you can also omit this step o(╯□╰)o
Continue to bake, you will see the juices coming out of the shell, it is almost ready (it means the inside is cooked~)
Bake fresh meat mooncakes for about 30 minutes. If you are afraid that the inside will be undercooked, you can lower the temperature (to 100-140°, bake for another 10 minutes)
PS The temperature is lowered to prevent the skin from burning
Finished product:
If you like firm meat filling, stir the minced meat more when making the meat filling (30 minutes is enough);
If you like the meat filling loose, just mix the meat filling casually to distribute the seasoning evenly.
