Eggplant, Bell Peppers And Chicken With Sweet And Sour Sauce Recipe by cookpad.japan
 cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp Green bell peppers and eggplant were in season this summer and autumn in my garden! I added some chicken breast that was on sale for around 100 yen ($1) to make dinner! It looks like sweet and sour pork so I cooked it using a similar sauce. It'll taste better when cooled if you use just a small bit of sauce. It's delicious in bento, too! -It's nice even without doubanjiang spicy bean paste! -Substitute chili oil or ichimi togarashi (japanese red chilli pepper) for the doubanjiang spicy bean paste. -Adding extra bamboo shoot, carrot, onion and shiitake mushrooms would be perfect. Like sweet and sour pork! -Do not stir fry the bell peppers too long or they'll lose their crunchiness. -Reduce the sauce at the end so that ketchup and vinegar are less acidic.

Sweet and Sour Sauce Chicken & Pork Meatballs! Sweet and Sour Sauce I saw some ground chicken breast on sale! Chicken has a pretty light flavor to it, so when I decided to change half of the meat to pork, I ended up with especially tasty meatballs! This meaty and hearty dish lets you enjoy the taste of chicken without the greasiness of an all-pork recipe. If you like your meatballs chock-full of meat, reduce the amount of onions. If your onion seems to be on the watery side, make sure to squeeze the moisture out after chopping. After pouring the sauce onto the meatballs, simmer well to get rid of the acidity from the ketchup and vinegar. These are also good without doubanjiang! Recipe by moj cookpad.japan Sweet and Sour Sauce for Egg Foo Yong Sweet and Sour Sauce for Egg Foo Yong Ever since I was a child, I liked to putter around in the kitchen. Sometimes I watched my late mom cooking. Most of the time she asked me to do this and that. I can still hear her voice telling me to peel or chop something. Growing up, I was blessed with a warm family and a home full of delicious dishes. My mother was always cooking something. Spicy rendang, stir-fry, seafood dishes, oh, how I'the love to return to that state of bliss when my parents were still alive and we could have a normal dinner together, chatting about mundane stuff. I am grateful for those memories. Now I am passing them to my kids. They are no stranger in the kitchen and in a way I am happy because my mother would love this. I learned (and am still learning) cooking by trial and error. The internet has opened my eyes to plenty of food around the world, but sometimes I yearn for the familiar, like this sweet and sour sauce. Being an Asian, we naturally collect tomato and chili sauce sachets from take-outs so we always have some around the house. #givingthanks Angela Mertoyono Stuffed Bell Peppers with Thick Sweet and Sour Sauce Stuffed Bell Peppers with Thick Sweet and Sour Sauce I always had e stuffed peppers with ketchup, but I wanted to try something different and thought up this recipe.
