Jalapenos stuffed with fish paste -9/11/08
In California Jalapenos are available at the supermarket year round. I selected this dish because I saw Martin Yan prepared in on TV and I thought it looks so easy and so fast to prepare so I decided to give it a try.
The slight heat of the Jalapenos beautifully compliments the aromatic ginger and black bean sauce.

The dish is so good with a hot bowl or white rice and lots of sauce on it. The Jalepenos are just perfect for this dish! |

Preparation work
|
Jalapenos are cut in half lengthwise and the seeds and loose flesh are scooped out. |
Stuffing the Jalapenos with fish paste. The fish paste is marinated with fresh chopped ginger, garlic, salt, sugar, a egg. |
|
In a hot lightly coated with oil, I am putting the stuffed Jalapenos sides down until turning golden brown. |
The Jalapenos are now golden brown and will be removed from the pan and put aside. |
|
I am making the sauce by adding chopped garlic, black beans sauce and water. |
Once the sauce is bubbling, the stuffed Jalapenos are returned to the pan and will be cooked until about 5 minutes or so. |
