Tau Suan (split mung bean soup) 绿豆爽
Tau Suan (split mung bean soup) topped with you tiao (fried dough fritters) is one of the popular Chinese dessert soups in Singapore. This simple dessert is quite easy to whip up at home. There are 2 ways of cooking this Tau Suan thickened with potato flour or water chestnut flour and you can find many similar recipes online. One way is you steam the split mung beans and another is you gently fry the split mung beans with sugar until it is caramelised. I prefer the second option adapted from ‘here‘ as it can be done within 30 minutes and I can indulge in this sweet dessert sooner. I even kept the leftover in the refrigerator to serve cold and it is just as delicious especially in this warm weather.
Delicious to serve this Tau Suan (split mung bean soup) either hot or cold

Turn off the heat and serve hot with cut you tiao.
