Grass Head Pie with Peanut Crumbles
Ingredients:

Steps:
First step: Wash the grass head clean, remove any damaged leaves with your hands, then blanch it in boiling water for a short time, then drain and rinse with clean water.
Second step: Control the moisture of the grass head, chop it finely and put it into a bowl for later use.
Third step: Add sticky rice flour and glutinous rice flour, while quickly stirring with a chopstick, add warm water while it feels the right hardness, and stop adding water, then knead it into a dough for later use.
Fourth step: Take out the peanuts and crush them, then add red sugar to the peanut crumbles, mix well, and put it into a bowl for later use.
Fifth step: Roll out a small portion of dough, use your hands to flatten it, and then add a spoonful of the previous peanut and red sugar filling.
Sixth step: Wrap the filling like wrapping dumplings, seal the edges, and then shape it into small balls, then press them lightly to make small pies.
Seventh step: First heat a flat pan, then pour a small amount of oil into the pan, not too much, slightly more than usual when frying.

- Tips
- Grass head must be blanched to remove its grassy smell, which makes it taste more tender when eaten.
- This pie is quite greasy when making it, so you can use a little more oil when frying the pie, otherwise it will easily burn.
- I added peanuts and red sugar as filling, which makes the taste richer, if you don't like peanuts or are allergic to them, you can omit the peanuts. If you like salty flavors, you can add salt to the peanut crumbles, but I think making peanut crumbles with the kind of marinated peanuts sold in supermarkets is very good.
Grass head has a unique fresh and fragrant flavor. Eat it while hot, it's crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, sweet and not greasy, thanks to the addition of peanuts, it's more chewy. This taste… is amazing!
