Chilli 虾米

After I did the "Balachan Chilli", I proceeded with the "Chilli 虾米" a.k.a. "Heh Bi Hiam".

"Chilli 虾米" a.k.a. "Heh Bi Hiam"

Ingredients :

• Minced Dried Shrimp
• Garlic
• Sugar
• Balachan Chilli
• Olive Oil

Method :

1. Heat oil. Add garlic and stir fry until fragrant.
2. Add the minced dried shrimp and add some sugar. (Cause the dried shrimp can be quite salty depending on how long you have soaked it to soften it before mincing). Stir fry until fragrant and a bit brown.
3. Then add the balachan chilli. Fry until dry, a bit brown and fragrant.
4. As with the chilli, let it cool before storing. Pack into separate containers for freezer, fridge or office. Always use a clean spoon to take out the portion you need to prevent pre-mature spoiling.
