Step1:Weigh the red beans, iced sugar and orange peel respectively.
Step2:Let's deal with the red beans first. Weigh the red beans. Add 500g cold water to soak them for one night. I like to make it one night in advance so that I can use it directly the next day. Put five times more cold water to make room for beans to grow bigger.
Step3:[here's a secret to make the beans more open. Soak the red beans in five times cold water. Put them on the fire. Boil them in the fire and leave them on the fire immediately. Put them on for one night. Make the hair more open.

Step5:Put the dried filtered water of the soaked red beans into the big pot. Add cold water. Boil for two hours in high heat. Turn the heat down when the water is almost half dry. In the middle, remember to stir it every other time, so as not to paste the pot or heat unevenly. ***Tips - the two hours mentioned here is the time of my electromagnetic stove. Different fire temperatures are different. In a word, you should always remember to watch the fire when cooking red bean porridge. When the water is boiled, it will be almost half dried. You can turn the small fire when the sand comes out. ～～
Step6:When the water is half dried, it is found that the red beans are beginning to come out of the sand. You can turn the heat down and add in the sugar and mix well.

Step7:Keep on simmering for another half an hour or so. Look at the concentration. You can start the pot.
