Tau Sar Piah, also known as Mung Bean Pastry, is a traditional Chinese pastry popular in Southeast Asian cuisines, especially in Singapore and Malaysia. This flaky, round pastry consists of a delicate, buttery crust made from wheat flour and a savory or sweet filling of mung bean paste. Variants may include sweet fillings like red bean or lotus paste, or savory versions with salted mung beans and sometimes fried shallots for added flavor. While Tau Sar Piah is a treat enjoyed for its rich taste and delicate texture, its high fat content from the pastry dough, which is often made with shortening or lard, makes it a calorie-dense indulgence. On the healthier side, the mung bean filling offers a source of plant-based protein and dietary fiber. Moderation is key when enjoying this classic pastry, as it pairs cultural significance with indulgent flavors.
