PRESERVED BEAN CRUNCH

No one knows the name of this dish

but 

many people cook it

and

all agree it is yummy

The first time I tasted it

was at my sister-in-law Yvonne's place

She is a good cook

I found it to be really yummy

so I asked for her recipe

and

here I am

presenting my first attempt 

and

 I name it

'Preserved Bean Crunch'

The ingredients are simple

but 

the combination of them 

make it extremely yummy

best

served with steamed rice

1/2 cup ikan bilis, fried until crispy

1/2 cup minced pork

3 green chilli, cut into chunks

2 red chilli, cut into chunks

1 medium size onion, sliced

1/2 Tbsp preserve bean (tau Cheong)

1/4 tsp dark soya sauce

1/3 cup water (adjust)

1 Tbsp oil

pepper & sugar to taste

thickener: 1/2 Tbsp corn starch +1 Tbsp water

Note:

measure of ingredients is not fixed 

as it depends on the amount available 

and own preference

1) heat up oil in a wok

2) fry onions until fragrant, add minced pork & continue frying

3) add dark soya sauce, preserved beans & water

4) when cooked through, stir in ikan nilis & cut chilli

5) add seasoning to taste, stir in thickener to adjust consistency

6) dish up & serve

Remark:

1) Amount of water to add depends on how much sauce you like.

2) if you keep the sauce thick, the ikan bilis will remain crunch longer

3) salt is not added because tau cheong is salty, may adjust accordingly
