(2) When blanching the beans, add cooking oil and salt. This can maintain the emerald green color of the beans. After blanching, rinse the beans with water to keep the crispy texture.
(3) The peppers should be fried to tiger skin color first, so that the fried peppers will be particularly fragrant. When frying, add less oil to moisten the pan, and then add some salt to prevent sticking to the pan and add a bit of salt flavor.
(4) This dish contains tempeh, salt is added when frying the peppers, and salt is also added when blanching the cowpeas, so don’t add salt, just add a little light soy sauce to enhance the freshness.
