Homemade Tong Yuen by Mom


I made this Tong Yuen for the Winter Solstice Festival prayer at home hence no specific measurements. I learned this from my mom and it's very easy to make.

Some ginger (about 5 - 8 thin slices)
Some pandan leaves (about 5 pcs, cleaned and folded)
Some brown sugar to taste (about 1 tbsp)
Some rock sugar to taste (about 2 big rocks)
Ready made Tong Yuen

Method:
Placed ginger and pandan leaves into a pot of water. Bring it to a boil. Add brown sugar, rock sugar and Tong Yuen. Once Tong Yuen floats, it is ready to be served.
