Nut Paste with Red Bean

I love it when food is healthy and tasty at the same time. But not always these two characteristics fit in one dish. Often not everyone can like healthy dishes. That is why we are different. As the saying goes: «The taste and color of felt-tip pens are different.» If you like experimenting, then you can venture like me to cook this nut paste! It contains red beans! Yes, you read that right. I would be surprised too, honestly. But as it turns out, its taste is absolutely not palpable in the paste, it only gives the texture.
