daughter's :

I made fried soy bean with sweet and sour sauce. It is tasty for a bento box. It's hard to eat with chopsticks...

How to make fried soy bean:

1. cook soy beans (or can soy beans drain).

2. coat the soy beans nicely with corn starch.　*better not put liquid with cooked water or from can for "nice" coating.

3. fry with a generous amount of oil (doesn't need to be deep fried). *don't use anything to stir up, shake the pan instead.

4. drain excess oil on kitchen paper.

5. mix soy sauce, sugar, and rice vinegar(2:2:1 works well) in a microwave safe bowl, and microwave it until the sugar is dissolved(about 10 sec. I think...).

6. put the fried soy beans in the sauce.

I put sesami seeds, fresh green onions and fried green beans(same way with the soy beans).

Yum!
