🧂 Ingredients

200 g Ham

processed low-salt ham
20 g Ginger

cut into julienne
10-12 pcs Sichuan Peppercorn
8-10 pcs Dried Chili

cut into segments
5-6 pcs Green Pepper
1 tsp Chicken Essence
1 tsp Sesame Seed
½ cup Cilantro

chopped cilantro
1 tbsp Cooking Oil

Instructions

1 Cut the block of ham into thin slices. Each slice should be about ⅛ inches
thick. Wash the ham slices with warm water a few times so that they are clean.
Then, pat the slices dry with a paper towel.
2 Peel and cut the ginger. Then, cut the green pepper and dried chili pepper into
segments. Also, chop the cilantro roughly.
3 Add oil to a pan. Once the oil is hot, put the sliced ham into the pan. Stir-fry
the ham over high heat for about 2-3 minutes.
4 Ginger shreds will go first. Then, add Sichuan peppercorn and dried chili
peppers. Once they are fried for one minute, put the green pepper segments,
chicken essence, and white sesame seeds.
5 Keep frying everything over high heat for about 5-6 minutes. After the ham has
got a dark color, add the chopped cilantro and stir-fry for one more minute.
6 Sprinkle some more cilantro on top of the stir-fried ham if you want. Or, you
can also serve the ham directly. Gānbēi!
