Roasted chili peppers and preserved eggs (a dish from spicy Hunan girls)

Method

1. 01

   Step 1

   There was no firewood in the city, so I made a makeshift barbecue grill (◔◡◔). If you have the means, it will taste even better if you use firewood.

   

2. 02

   Step 2

   Heat both sides until the skin peels off. Let it cool, then remove the outer skin.

   

3. 03

   Step 3

   It's okay if there's a little bit of black residue left after cleaning; it won't affect anything.

   

4. 04

   Step 4

   Crush the garlic with a stone mill.

   

5. 05

   Step 5

   Add roasted chili peppers, salt, and light soy sauce, mash them, and let them absorb the flavors; then add a few drops of sesame oil and aged vinegar and mix well.

   Step 6

   Preserved eggs can be easily handled with just a thread, and you don't have to worry about the pit sticking to the knife.

   Step 7

   Plate it up. In Hunan, some people like to mash preserved eggs and chili peppers together and eat it. Oil-free, appetizing, and a perfect accompaniment to rice! (◔◡◔)
