Method
- 1 Peel the taro while your hands are dry to avoid itching, then cut it into 1 cm cubes.
- 2 Sauté the potatoes in pork fat for 6 minutes until the outer surface is slightly browned; sautéing the potatoes beforehand will help them retain their shape in the pancake instead of dissolving into a powder.
- 3 Sauté the Chinese sausage and dried shrimp, then mix with five-spice powder and pepper.
- 4 Mix the rice flour with 150 ml of warm water, stir everything together, then pour into a mold with a thickness of 4 cm.
- 5 Steam for 45 minutes, sprinkle with fried shallots and green onions; let cool for 20 minutes before cutting to prevent the cake from breaking.
