  2. 2 Mix the flour, baking powder, and sugar with the eggs and fresh milk to form a smooth batter.
  3. 3 Heat the fish mold on the stove and then brush oil evenly on both sides of the mold.
  4. 4 Pour batter to cover half of the mold, place the red bean filling in the middle, and then cover with the remaining batter.

    Replace step 5: Place the molded fish-shaped pastry on the middle rack of the 220-degree oven for 8 minutes, flip the mold after 4 minutes and rotate the tray; make several pastries at once, but the edges will be less crispy than baking directly on the stovetop.
