Beijing Fried Gezhi Box

Beijing Fried Gezhi Box is a traditional snack full of the characteristics of old Beijing, carrying a strong Beijing - style charm. Its main raw materials are mung beans and millet. Grind them into a paste in a certain proportion and spread it into a thin pancake - like "Gezhi", which is the basis for making Gezhi Box. "Gezhi" itself has a flexible texture, with the aroma of beans and rice interwoven. When making Gezhi Box, cut the "Gezhi" into appropriate - sized squares or rectangles, wrap them with a filling made of a mixture of Chinese cabbage, carrots, vermicelli, minced meat, etc., seal the edges into a box shape, and then fry them in hot oil until the outer skin turns golden and crispy. Drain the oil after taking it out. Take a bite, and the outer skin makes a crisp "gezhi" sound, while the filling inside is full of aroma. The freshness of vegetables, the softness of vermicelli, and the richness of the meat filling are perfectly combined, creating a rich taste experience. Fried Gezhi Box is not only a delicious snack for daily cravings but also often appears on the dining tables during festivals in old Beijing, symbolizing a prosperous and beautiful life. It is deeply loved by people of all ages.
