It is said that the autumn is high and fresh, but this autumn is really rainy. Many people feel depressed and irritable for no reason when it rains. This is actually related to the lack of vitamins in the body!

Today Meimei introduces you to a simple home-cooked dish. When you are in a bad mood, you can eat it more. It is called "mental vitamin". Simply stir-fried and served on the table, refreshing and appetizing!
At first glance, this dish is very similar to peas, but in fact, it is different from the peas we usually eat. Its name is "String beans".

Peas are a large family with many varieties. There are three types of peas used for cooking. One type is peas for grains, we only eat the beans inside, not the pods. The other is peas for pods, and the other is peas for both grains and pods. There are two types of pod peas on the market: wide pods and narrow pods. Wide-pod pea pods are light green in color, light in taste and poor in umami, while narrow-pod pea pods have a darker color and a strong flavor. The one we have today is peas with both pods and grains. The pod has thick flesh, large beans, sweet and crispy, and good taste, but because it is relatively fresh and tender, it must not be over-fried.
Kidney beans are rich in nutrition, with 7.2 grams of protein per 100 grams and 80 kcal of calories, which is equivalent to the nutritional value of the same amount of tofu. Especially the content of B vitamins is very high. For example, vitamin B1 is 18 times of tofu, vitamin B2 and vitamin PP are 2.5 times and 14 times of tofu, respectively.

Kidney beans contain a large amount of vitamin B1, which can prevent anxiety, so it is called "mental vitamin".

Kidney bean is a kind of health food that is very suitable for people with high blood pressure, diabetes, heat physique and so on. Modern food therapy experts praised pea as a "hypertensive bean". People who suffer from hypertension or have increased blood pressure, headache, upset, and pulse string, often take dishes and soups made with peas and their products, which is of great benefit.

The bean pods of the kidney beans are very tender. Simply stir-fry them and you can get them out of the pot. Just add a little salt to adjust the taste and it will be very fresh. Spring is the season for eating peas, so don't miss it.

Ingredients

400g Kidney Bean

Some Oil
Some Salt

Stir-fried String Beans

1. Kidney bean is a kind of peas. It belongs to the two-eaten variety of pod beans. The meat is thick, the beans are fresh and tender, and the taste is particularly good. However, the yield is lower than that of ordinary peas. Therefore, it is less common in the market. The surface of the pod of the dish is relatively flat. It looks meaty.

2. First tear off the silk at both ends of the bean. This step can be carried out with the child, exercise the child's hands-on ability, and at the same time allow the child to participate in housework and improve their sense of ownership.

3. After all the peas are processed, rinse twice with clean water, wash the peas pods piece by piece with your hands, and drain the water slightly.

4. Put oil in the pot, pour the pea pods into the pot and fry on high heat until the surface of the pods becomes more vivid.

5. At this time, it is poured along the side of the pot like a bowl of broth, chicken broth, rib soup can be, as long as it is broth, the pods are burned with foods rich in amino acids, which is more conducive to the absorption and utilization of nutrients. The amount of soup is best pod.

6. Cover the pot and heat it on high heat until the juice is slightly collected.

7. My kids like to eat rice in soup, so I left a little more soup. The pods are easier to cook. If you prefer a softer taste, you can cook it for a little longer and season with salt before serving.

Tips:
Beans are more seasonal. Be sure to choose thicker meat. When selecting, pinch them with your hands. The fresh pods are elastic and have better surface gloss. The tenderer beans have a better taste and will not taste good. There are muscles and teeth.
I like to eat softer ones and cook for a few more minutes. The broth will be enough for one time.
