Green Bean Wide Vermicelli, Spinach & Egg Stir-fry

Leave a comment

I found a pack of green bean wide Vermicelli in a corner at the small supermarket near my home. I was very curious about it, because it’s my first time to see Vermicelli made from green beans. And more surprisingly, it’s from Qufu city, Confucius’s hometown, and it’s also a city next to my hometown. But I have never heard about it before. I really couldn’t control my curiosity, so I bought one pack. 🙂 really want to figure out how this transparent Vermicelli tastes.

I boil 100g green bean wide vermicelli in boiling water for 8 mins according to the instruction on the package. Then take them out and soak in cold water. Drain them.

1. Heat a little oil in the pan. Pour in two beaten eggs. Make scrambled egg. And set egg aside.

2. Heat the pan again. Add in a little oil if needed. Sauté chopped garlic and dried red chili till aromatic.

3. Add in spinach. Quickly stir fry with medium-high heat.

4. Once spinach turns soft and greener, add in green bean vermicelli. Stir fry for 1-2 mins.

5. Add in scrambled egg. Mix evenly.

6. Season with salt and black pepper.

Serve hot.

It’s actually not bad. Green bean vermicelli tastes like very similar to regular vermicelli made from sweet potato. But more chewy.

2. Coat pork chop with flour.

Cocoa Brownie

Leave a comment

One day, my husband chose a pack of Starbucks cocoa when we bought groceries in a supermarket. He was super excited because he kept thinking about a warm and yummy cup of cocoa. He immediately made himself a cup of hot cocoa when we reached home. Yet….he found it’s not as yummy as he thought. He always does things like that. At first he’s very excited and can’t wait to buy something but finds it’s not as good as he thought. =_=||

My principle is no wasting food in my kitchen. So I decided to make cocoa into brownies. And my husband is happy because he will feel less guilty in buying something he doesn’t like.

Oh. I found the recipe here:

best cocoa brownies


Ingredients:

Butter 140g

Sugar 250g ( if you want it to be less sweet, you can reduce the sugar)

Cocoa powder 65g

Salt 1/4 tsp

Vanilla extract 1/2 tsp

Eggs 2

Flour 65g
Preheat oven to 160 degree C.

1. Combine butter, sugar, cocoa powder & salt in a bowl. Place the bowl in simmering water. Stir till smooth.

2. Set aside to cool down.

3. Add in vanilla and beat in eggs. Mix them well.

4. Add in flour and mix till just combined.

5. Pour batter into baking pan.

6. Bake for 20-25 mins. ( because I used my round shaped baking pan and it’s smaller than the size in original recipe. So it took me longer to get done, about 30-35 mins.)


Very moist and yummy. I love it.

Homemade Onsen Tamago

Leave a comment

My husband loves onsen tamago. I tried many times before but failed. I used thermometer this time and finally I succeeded.

Take eggs out from refrigerator and let them to be room temperature.

In a deep pot, pour into enough water that should covers eggs.

When the water temperature reaches 60 degree C, put the eggs into water gently.

Make sure temperature between 60 – 70 degree C. And boil for 30-40 mins. I boiled 37 mins. If the temperature gets higher than 70 degree C, add in a little cold water. You can also put in ice cube. Turn to the low heat or lowest heat of stove, so the temperature can be easily controlled.


When the time is up, soak eggs into cold icing water for a while.


Beautiful homemade onsen tamago.
