福州三角糕.

Ingredients:
2 cups turnip cake powder (在来米粉）
300g taro （芋头）
5 cups water （水）
1 tbsp salt （盐）
2 tbsp msg or chicken bouillon （味精）
1/2 tsp white pepper （白胡椒粉）
1 tsp five spice powder （五香粉）

The turnip cake powder can be obtained from any local Asian grocery store. Here's an Amazon link to see the packaging in more detail: https://www.amazon.com/Sun-Right-Turn...

Directions:
Shave skin off taro, cut taro in half, and grate taro into small strips.
先把芋头削皮。用刨丝器将芋头切成细丝。

In a bowl, combine turnip cake powder with 2 cups water. Set aside.

In a pan, stir-fry the taro in 1-2 tbsp oil. After 2-3 minutes, add the turnip cake powder
mixture. If the mixture has been sitting aside for quite some time, remember to quickly stir again before pouring it into the pan.
煮到芋头熟透，加入调好的粉浆。粉浆倒入之前搅拌均匀。倒入之后，迅速搅拌，避免粘锅。

Continuously combine until a mashed potatoes consistency is formed or when all of the liquid has evaporated and the mixture is generally smooth and moldable.
不停搅拌到白色粉浆和芋头完全混合变稠凝固

Flatten the taro mixture into an one-inch tall rectangular tray. Adjust tray size depending on the amount of mixture you have. Use plastic wrap to cover the tray first to prevent sticking or oil the pan first if you don't want to use plastic wrap.
准备一个1英寸深的托盘（也可以用其它平底容器）托盘先铺一层保鲜膜，如果您是用比较高的容器可以在底部刷层油代替保鲜膜. 芋头糕要尽量压实，等下切的时候不会散掉.

After flattening, wrap everything in plastic wrap before refrigerating overnight.
轻轻拍打压实定型晾凉后放入冰箱冷藏. 最后把底部保鲜膜包起来，上面再铺一层保鲜膜

Cut the now hardened mixture into triangles.
冰箱中取出芋头糕. 切成厚1.5cm左右的三角型（厚度不要超过2cm，这样煎炸更酥脆）

Heat oil on high, and place the triangle cakes in one by one. Avoid continuously touching the triangle cakes to prevent breakage. Flip when golden. Fry until golden and crispy. Enjoy!
开大火，锅中倒入可以没过芋头糕的油芋头糕一个个小心放入油锅，每个之间稍微留点空隙，以防粘粘，等表皮稍硬再翻面，期间不要翻动芋头糕，以免破碎，炸至两面金黄就可以了
