• 1 tbsp fish sauce

• salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

• Wash jalapeños and snap the stems off.

• Wear gloves so your hands won’t burn after!!!*

• Cut each jalapeño in half and remove all the seeds and membranes.

• Mix together the ground pork, eggs, chopped green onions, Chinese fermented black bean sauce, garlic powder, fish sauce, salt and pepper.

• Use a spoon to fill all the half jalapeños with the mixed ground pork.

• Pan fry, steam or bake the jalapeños.

Notes:
These little jalapeño poppers are great to bring as appetizers for pot lucks or to have at home. If you prefer crispy, I recommend pan frying them. I prefer steaming mine, just because I find it the healthiest method and more importantly, the egg and juice that comes out from steaming tastes delicious!!!
