Red bean paste

Now this is another of my fav Korean desert. Simply yet yummy !!!!!!

All u need is some red beans, sugar n water :)

Get some red beans (a cup or two) n soak them in cold water for a few hours. Now cook them in a pressure cooker to make it fast or boil them in some water ( this would take longer .. hrs instead of mins) Smash the beans well so that it forms a nice paste. Now use a strainer to remove the peel frm the paste. This part is a bit time consuming n tedious, however the more effort u put in the btr ur desert is gonna taste :) You can add some water to the paste to help sieve. Collect the fine paste, add some water n sugar to it and heat it up. Once it starts to boil keep stirring. After a while it tickens.

If u like it hot go ahead n try or else refrigerate it once it cools down. Top it up with some almond, cashew or any such nuts when serving depending on ur taste.
