Cucumber Slices with Chilli Pepper
1.
Wash and slice cucumbers. (I use a grater to peel off the functional planed slices, which are thinner and more delicious.)
2.
Adjust the fragrance of peppers: cut millet pickled peppers and red millet peppers into circles, roll or crush fresh pepper (or dried green pepper), and slice garlic for later use.
3.
Put a little base oil in the pot, add pickled pepper, millet pepper, pepper and garlic when the oil is hot and sauté until fragrant.
4.
Pour in hot water, add appropriate amount of chicken essence (or chicken broth is good), white vinegar and a little sugar to make fresh. Bring to a boil for a few minutes, boil the soup, and pour it on the cucumber slices.
Tips:
Ps:
1. Two kinds of seasonings give out the aroma of pepper: millet pickled pepper and raw pepper (I used dried green pepper). Because both millet pepper and green pepper have a "green and astringent" spicy flavor, they are very unique. The combination of the two makes the pepper aroma very strong and fragrant. Crushing or rolling the peppercorns is more flavorful.
2. Pickled peppers already have a sour taste, but in order to make cucumbers more sour and crispy, I added a little white vinegar. The ratio of sweet and sour can be controlled by yourself.
