Steamed wild vegetables with rice flour

Method

1. 01

   Step 1

   Prepare the ingredients: garland chrysanthemum, celery, peanuts, garlic, small chili peppers, and a small bowl of cornmeal.

   

2. 02

   Step 2

   Prepare some fruit and vegetable washing salt ( 5 grams added to the water when washing vegetables).

   

3. 03

   Step 3

   Remove the old leaves from the garland chrysanthemum and celery, put them in water, and rinse them several times under running water to remove pesticide residue.

   

4. 04

   Step 4

   After washing the vegetables, take them out and spread them out in a ventilated place to drain for an hour.

   

5. 05

   Step 5

   Break the vegetables in half and add a small spoonful of olive oil. You can add more if you have a lot of vegetables.

   

6. 06

   Step 6

   Spoon the oil onto each piece of vegetable (the purpose of sprinkling oil is to lock in the moisture of the vegetables so that the steamed vegetables are not watery).

   

7. 07

   Step 7

   Next, add two small spoonfuls of salt to a bowl of prepared cornmeal and stir. Then add the cornmeal to the vegetables and stir with chopsticks. (Be careful not to rub it with your hands.)

   

8. 08

   Step 8

   After adding cornmeal to the vegetables and mixing them, grab a handful of all-purpose flour and sprinkle it in, then mix with chopsticks. (The purpose of adding all-purpose flour is to create a white frost-like coating on the steamed vegetables, making them look and taste better.)

   Step 9

   Place the mixed vegetables in a steamer.

   

10. 10

    Step 10

    Add a few shredded carrots (optional), and put it in a pot with cold water.

    

11. 11

    Step 11

    Cover the pot and steam over high heat. Once the water boils, steam for 10 minutes (I used an electric steamer). Because garland chrysanthemum is very tender, 10 minutes is enough; steaming it for too long will make it watery and not very tasty.

    

12. 12

    Step 12

    After 10 minutes, turn off the heat and immediately remove the lid from the pot. (The reason for removing the lid immediately is to prevent water vapor from dripping into the food and affecting its taste.)

    

13. 13

    Step 13

    Fry peanuts in a cold pan with cold oil.

    

14. 14

    Step 14

    Drain the oil after frying (I fried a lot, but only used a small handful in the dish).

    

15. 15

    Step 15

    Place the steamed vegetables in a bowl, add fried peanuts and shredded chili peppers, and dip them in garlic sauce before eating.

    Step 16

    Garlic dipping sauce recipe: Take an appropriate amount of minced garlic, pour boiling cooked oil over it and fry until fragrant, add two teaspoons of balsamic vinegar, one teaspoon of salt, a small amount of white sugar, half a teaspoon of oyster sauce, and an appropriate amount of warm water. Dip the garlic in this sauce when eating.
