Thousand Layer Flaky Yam mooncake 2014 (Airfry Version)



Every year this is a must make mooncake though a lot of work.  This yr used Airfryer to airfry it and it is so much faster and the color so much nicer.  I also add into salted yolk in four pieces.  Same recipe from Aunty Yochana as it is so nice.

Thanks Aunty Yochanan for sharing the recipe:
