Winter of Lunar Calendar.

I made the traditional 'tong yuen'(made form rice flour) on last Saturday on the Chinese '1st day of Winter'(If I'm not wrong. :P). It's has been years I didn't make this, since I came out to KL, like...11 years ago. In fact....I was just helping my mum to prepare it this time. Haha...

We just made a simple one. Used peanut butter jam and just wrapped the jam inside the plain 'tong yuen'. Then cook it with green bean soup. Looked a bit ugly, but it tasted incredibly yummy. Hehe...
