Strawberry red bean filling
- Clean the strawberry and slice off the green part.
- Scoop the red bean paste (could be homemade or ready-made) into a round shape.
- Use the tip (bottom) of the strawberry to press it against the red bean ball.
- Slowly mold the red bean paste such that it covers all parts of the strawberry.
