    Choose fresh red peppers with no defects, wash them, and dry the surface moisture. I left it in the sun for a long time. Be sure to dry the surface moisture, otherwise it will be damaged easily. Don't remove it before washing, otherwise water will easily enter the pepper and it will break easily.

    Then cook the peanuts and beans, drain them and set aside. It is best to cook them separately. I was lazy and cooked them together, and the color was not very good.

Tips

1. Be sure to choose peppers that are flawless, otherwise they are prone to water intrusion and damage.
2. The original recipe is that the ratio of soybeans to peanuts is 2:1. My husband loves peanuts, so I used a ratio of 1:1. You can adjust it appropriately according to your own preferences. Just keep the total amount unchanged.
3. The original recipe contains MSG. Now my family has never eaten MSG, so I will use mushroom essence instead.
