Frog ( Tien Ji ) |
Method :
- buy the cleaned frogs from the mall instead of doing it yourself because slaughtering the frogs need someone experience to do it, at home just pull out any unwanted mess such as the veins, chop them into sections then rub with salt, wash it clean and pad dry.
- marinate the frogs for 20mins, stir fry them in oil, do not cook for too long only a quick stir fry, otherwise the meat of the frog will shrink and harden, remove and put aside.
- heat up some cooking oil enough to saute the rest of the ingredients ( except the cashew nuts, green part of the spring onions and water )
- once you can smell the aroma from the wok, add the frogs.
- mix all the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and stir, then pour it into the frog, stir fry and cover the wok for a while.
- add 2 tbsp of water, some cashew nut and stir a little, scope them onto a plate, garnish with the green part of the spring onions and serve when it is hot.
