In this video, Maangchi shares her recipe for traditional Korean chapssal doughnuts. The doughnuts are made with glutinous rice flour, wheat flour, sugar, and butter, and are filled with sweet red bean paste. To make the paste, Maangchi cooks azuki beans for 2 hours, then mashes and strains them to remove the skins. She adds sugar, rice syrup, salt, and vanilla extract to the paste, then cooks it until it thickens. The dough is kneaded until smooth, then divided into 10 pieces. Each piece is flattened, filled with the red bean paste, and sealed into a ball shape. The doughnuts are fried in hot oil and coated in sugar. The result is a crunchy outside and a chewy, sweet inside. Maangchi recommends making a batch of these doughnuts at home, as they are a delicious and addictive treat that everyone will love.
