Braised Beans with Beancurd Sticks

[Ingredients] 200g of soaked yuba, 200g of beans, 100g of lean pork, 20g of water starch, 1kg of cooked salad oil (about 50g consumed), chopped green onion, shredded ginger, garlic slices: appropriate amounts of refined salt, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce, cooking wine, vinegar, sugar, and fresh soup.

【Method】 Cut the soaked bean curd into 3 cm long segments and drain the water. Remove the tendons from the beans, wash them, cut them into 3 cm long segments, blanch them in boiling water, remove them and let them cool, drain the water. Cut the meat into willow leaves, put them in a bowl and starch them with water. Take a small bowl, add 1.5 spoons of fresh soup, add 8 soy sauce, salt, MSG, vinegar, cooking wine, sugar, water starch, mix them into juice, and set aside. Put the wok on high heat, add oil, and when the oil is 50% hot, add bean curd, meat slices, and beans. Use chopsticks to separate them, pour into a colander, and drain the oil. Leave a little oil in the original pot, add chopped green onions, shredded ginger, and garlic slices, stir-fry until fragrant, pour in the pre-mixed juice, add bean curd, beans, and meat slices, turn them over twice: after the starch is evenly coated, add a little oil, and serve.

Potatoes and Beans

Material:

One pound of green beans, two potatoes, some green onion and ginger

Preparation method:

1. Wash beans and remove tendons; peel potatoes and cut into strips; chop green onion and ginger

2. Light up a wok and fry the beans in oil for a while until they start to soften.

3. Drain excess oil, add onion and ginger, stir-fry until fragrant, then add potato strips and stir-fry until fragrant.

4 Add sugar and dark soy sauce and stir-fry until the beans and potatoes are colored.

5 Add a small cup of water, cover the pot and simmer over medium heat until the soup is thick and the potatoes are cooked. Add salt and chicken essence to season and serve.

Roasted Beans with Chives

1. Boil 300g ribs (don’t use ribs that are too big, as they are difficult to cook). Drain and set aside.

2. Add water (a little more to cover the ribs), one or two star anise, 4 or 5 bay leaves, 1 cinnamon bark, 1 cardamom, and other spices if you like, 30g-50g ginger, bring to a boil, add the ribs, soy sauce (I put more so I don't have to add salt), and rock sugar. I used medium heat and stewed until the soup was almost at the bottom and the oil in the ribs came out. After about 40 minutes, the ribs were 80% to 90% cooked.

3. Heat another pan, add oil, add ginger, onion and garlic, sauté until fragrant, add beans and salt, stir a few times, pour in the ribs and all the broth, and continue stir-frying until cooked.

4. Serve on a plate and you are done.
