Suan Rong He Lan Dou Garlic Fried Snow Peas Recipes

QING CHAO HE LAN DOU (STIR-FRIED SNOW PEAS)

Qing Chao He Lan Dou (Stir-Fried Snow Peas) image

This recipe comes from 'Ji Pin Su Cai' (Best Vegetable Dishes), a 30-cent, 5-inch-square, paperback cookbook from Wal-Mart in China. It's simple home-style Chinese cooking. Chinese cookbooks assume you will know how much of each condiment and seasoning to add, so most of the ingredients are listed 'ge shi liang'--to taste. I've suggested amounts, but you can adjust according to your own preference.

SUAN RONG JIANG DOU (GARLIC-FRIED GREEN BEANS)

Suan Rong Jiang Dou (Garlic-Fried Green Beans) image

Taken from Ji Pin Su Shi (Best Vegetable Dishes), a 30-cent, 5-in-square, paperback cookbook from Wal-Mart in China. Simple, home-style Chinese fare. Chinese cooks are expected to determine the proportions of condiments and seasonings. Everything is "ge shi liang"--to taste. I've suggested amounts, but if they don't seem right, just trust your own tastebuds. China has several varieties of green beans, and they go by different names in different parts of China. I think 'jiang dou' may refer to the yard-long beans, but any variety should taste good in this recipe. The amount of garlic listed strikes me as over the top. Try it if you dare. I'll be using less.
