Instructions
Soak the beans and Job's tears for 6-8 hours. I usually soak them before I go to bed.
Drain out the water from the beans and Job's tears. Give them a rinse.
Add them to an instant pot or pressure cooker with 960 ml (4 cups) water. Cook for 20 minutes. After the cooker finishes cooking, let it sit for 30 minutes before open the lid. The beans and Job's tears should be soft but still hold their shape. if you're using a traditional rice cooker read the instructions in this recipe.
Add the sugar and taste. I like to add a pinch of salt as well, which is totally optional. Serve warm.

將紅豆、花豆、薏仁浸泡於水中 6-8 小時。我通常是睡前浸泡
將水瀝掉,稍微沖洗一下
將浸泡過的紅豆、花豆、薏仁與 960 ml 水放入壓力鍋中,用壓力鍋煮 20 分鐘,煮完後讓它靜置 30 分鐘再開蓋,此時豆子與薏仁應該已經軟透。電鍋煮法請參考這篇食譜的電鍋作法。
加入糖,輕柔混拌均勻,試味道,依個人口味調整糖量。我自己習慣再加一小撮鹽,這是非必要的。趁熱享用!
