[stimulate Summer Taste Buds with Endless Aftertaste] Spicy Dried Octopus
1.
Prepare the materials.
2.
Rinse the pepper, cut the green onion, ginger, garlic, and cut the seeds of the pepper.
3.
The octopus is slaughtered and cleaned, cut into the same size, add a little high liquor, salt, and pepper to pickle for about 10 minutes. (It is marinated with high-grade liquor, which can effectively remove the fishy smell of hairtail, which is better than cooking wine)
4.
In a clean bowl, add half a bowl of water, then add a little pepper, chicken essence, sugar, balsamic vinegar, cooking wine, and mix well. (The fish has been marinated with salt, and the bean paste in step 10 is also a bit salty, so there is no need to add salt to the sauce to taste)
5.
Drain the marinated hairtail and pat with a thin layer of dry powder. (If the pot at home is a non-stick pot, you can omit this step)
6.
When the oil in the pan is 70 to 80% hot, add the octopus cubes for frying.
7.
Fry the fish pieces until they are slightly golden on both sides, then remove the oil.
8.
Leave the remaining oil in the pot and saute the remaining pepper, then remove the pepper.
9.
Stir-fry the green onion, ginger, garlic and Chaotian pepper.
10.
Add appropriate amount of Pixian bean paste, stir-fry on low heat to get the red oil.
11.
Pour in the prepared sauce and bring to a boil.
12.
Add the fried octopus.
13.
Turn the high heat to a medium-to-low heat to thicken the soup, wrap the soup on the octopus, sprinkle with green onions and garnish, and serve.
14.
The amount of seasoning can be increased or decreased according to your own taste.
