Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Slice the cucumber. Deseed the red chili pepper* and slice into thin rings.
  • In a bowl, combine the white wine vinegar with the sugar, the cucumber, half of the chili pepper and a pinch of salt.
  • Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic.
  • Prepare the stock.

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

Fry the chicken
2
  • Heat a drizzle of sunflower oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the garlic with the onion, the chicken and the rest of the chili pepper for 6 minutes.
  • Add both of the dry spices and fry for 1 more minute.
  • Add the stock and allow to reduce for 2 - 3 minutes.
  • Discard the tips of the green beans and then cut in half.
Boil the green beans
3
  • Transfer the beans to a pot or saucepan and cover with a shallow layer of water.
  • Add a pinch of salt and cover with the lid, then bring to the boil and allow to cook gently for 6 - 8 minutes. 
  • Boil a shallow layer of water in a pot or saucepan.
  • Line a metal sieve with parchment paper and place it in the pan, making sure it doesn't touch the water.
Serve
4
  • Transfer the bao buns to the sieve and steam for 5 - 7 minutes until soft, covered.
  • Drain the beans and return to the pot, then add the ketjap and fry for 1 minute.
