Home flavor: stewed pork with dried cowpeas

Introduction:

"A few days ago, my friend gave me too many organic cowpeas to eat. When I was a child, my mother often dried and stored the cowpeas that she couldn't finish in summer, and used them to stew pork in winter. In the era of material scarcity, eating meat is a luxury for my brother and I. My mother is a rural woman who knows how to live. In the countryside, there is no shortage of vegetables, but meat. So my mother would buy two yuan of streaky pork every day for cooking. The fat part was used as cooking oil, and the refined oil residue and lean meat became the meat in the dishes, which gave me a long body at that time We need some energy. This also directly leads to my current eating habits. I like to eat meat with vegetables, but I don't feel like eating meat completely. There's a lot of nonsense. Back to the topic of cooking, mom uses a large piece of pork to make a stew. It's the ultimate delicacy in the world. Now I try to make this dish. The cowpeas are not completely dried in the sun. In this way, the stewing time can be shorter, and there's no need to foam hair. If you can't finish half dried cowpeas at a time, you can freeze them in the refrigerator. "

Production steps:

Step 1: wash the cowpea, remove the wormhole and the pedicel on both sides

Step 2: put cowpea into boiling water until soft and green

Step 3: hang it on the clothes rack and dry it in the sun all day. I made it at night and put it on the balcony to dry it. Maybe it's because the sun is not enough. One day is not enough. I dry it for two days. If I put it in the sun, one day is enough

Step 4: after the cowpea is dried, the loss is very large, and there is not much after drying

Step 5: pass the cowpea with clean water, wash off the floating dust and cut it into small pieces

Step 6: prepare pork, because I stewed a few pieces of braised pork a few days ago, I use this directly today. If there is no good stew, I have to first boil the meat in water, then fry it in the pot, add star anise, stew it with soy sauce, and then put cowpea.

Step 7: heat the oil in the pan, add cowpea and garlic and stir fry

Step 8: add pork and stir fry

Step 9: add water to cover the ingredients and simmer until the juice is collected. I need to put more water. I don't have any ingredients. I put less water this time. I added some water in the back. I have to stew the cowpea to make it delicious

Step 10: add salt, season soy sauce and start cooking.

Materials required:

Dried cowpea: appropriate amount

Pork: 300g

Garlic: right amount

Salt: right amount

Precautions: 1. Cowpeas don't need to be too dry in the sun. If they are completely dry, they can be kept in the refrigerator, but they should be taken out in advance when eating, and then they can be made soft with water bubbles. 2. If there is no stewed pork in advance, it is necessary to use the method of making braised pork to cook the meat almost, and then add cowpeas to cook. 3. Like to eat spicy, you can also put some dry pepper into stew, taste better. 4. Cowpeas must be stewed soft, or they won't bite.
