    Take chopsticks and press them into a ditch in the middle. I made it thicker, but it would be better to make it thinner.

    After rolling, twist it in the middle or cut it with a knife. Stand up halfway and have plastic surgery. It looks like a flower. If you don't open it, it will steam out like tulips. When the petals are opened, they steam out like roses.

    After rolling, twist it in the middle or cut it with a knife. Stand up halfway, plastic surgery. If you don't open the petals, they will steam out like tulips. When the petals are opened, they will only be like roses when they are steamed. Put it on the drawer and wake up for about five minutes, and start steaming.

    After steaming, stop for seven or eight minutes before opening the lid. Okay. This is what it looks like. If the discs were made thin, they would look better than this.

    I steam them on the drawer while cooking. My purple potatoes are also steamed while cooking. Personally, I think it saves energy. However, steaming steamed buns should still be steamed separately, because the cooking steam is not enough and it will become a little sticky. You can also cut carrots into thin strips instead of the cores made of purple potato flour
