What’s Chinese Chili? Sounds delightful.

Basically, it’s chili-ish with Asian spices.  Not at all authentic Asian, but very tasty.  This recipe comes from a Booktuber named Bandy’s Books:

 

Chinese Chile

 

Serves: 6

 

Ingredients:
1.5 (ish) lbs. Ground Pork

1 Red Bell Pepper (small dice)

1 Green Bell Pepper (small dice)

1 White Onion (small dice)

5 cloves Garlic (grated or minced)

1 tbs. Ginger (grated or minced)

1-2 tbs. Soy Sauce 

2 tbs. Hoisin Sauce

1 tbs. Rice Vinegar

12 oz. Beer (Blonde, Pale Ale, Lager)

14 oz. Tomato Sauce

1 tbs. Chinese 5 Spice

Sichuan Peppercorns (finely ground) To Taste

1 tbs. Hot Chili Sesame Oil 

Green Onions & Sesame Seeds for garnish

 

Directions:
1. In a large pot, heat the hot chili sesame oil until shimmering.

2. Add the ground pork and cook until just browned.

3. Add the bell peppers and onion. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until veggies become tender.

4. Stir in the garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. 

5. Add the Chinese 5 Spice and Sichuan peppercorns. Cook for 1 minute.(Note: Sichuan peppercorns are a unique flavor. They cause a sort of numbness in the mouth which is normal. If you haven't worked with them before, start with a small amount. You can always add more as it cooks.)

6. Add your beer, tomato sauce, soy sauce, hoisin, and rice vinegar. Bring up to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 30-45 minutes or until chili has thickened. 

7. Serve chili hot either by itself or over steamed white rice. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

It was going great until the end, which I found odd, like they didn't know how to end it.

I would have loved if Paul Rudd showed up at the end.

[bluegirl147]

Since I'm not rooting for or against either team I enjoy things like the doink.

[Black Knight]

In a Super Bowl like this, a missed FG feels like something large.

[bluegirl147]

So Clueless and now Caddyshack.  What's next?

[Lantern7]

Only thing missing was the CGI Rodney Dangerfield at the end.

Yep, I think mushrooms are needed watching the ads.

That was last year. Or the year before.

[DoctorAtomic]

Animal House.

The only thing I really care about with this game is that it goes to overtime so we get to see the new OT rules in play.

Of course, by me saying that, I have just jinxed it. Though Harrison Butker is usually automatic so...

7-7 score after the first won my 100 bucks back on Squares!

[Black Knight]

Clueless is a solid pick at least because it still brings in new generations. My 12-year-old niece was just watching it for the first time a few weeks ago. She talked about the stepbrother thing being a little creepy, and I told her the source material was worse.

[Lantern7]

Help us, Micheal Keaton, you’re the only hope to balance out Ezra Miller.

[Chit Chat]

Did I just see Michael Keaton as Batman?  Yay!

I hope not.

Mr. Met makes anything better.

[meowmommy]

"Attractive cougars in your area want to meet you."  Heh.

That is a pretty kitty.

[bluegirl147]

Ok that was a nice play.

[Lantern7]

DAMN. “Someone set them up the bomb!”

Is that right line?

Edited February 13, 2023 by Lantern7

[Chit Chat]

That was nice!

[ebk57]

Wow - how did that happen??!!

[Magog]

Nice Touchdown Pass!

[DoctorAtomic]

That was a great catch, but the safety totally blew it too.

He/she was, but it's a shame that Hollywood is still using big cats as props.  It's not a good life for the cats.  Made me sad. 

[Lantern7]

Thinking about it, it’s a shame they couldn’t work in trumpets for Edwin Diaz.

[twoods]

I saw two receivers getting held.

No one drinks Pepsi. Stop it. 

Are they trying to play off Romo is Bill Murray? Also no.

If its Pepsi Throwback, I'll drink it.

[SnarkShark]

Thanks Will Ferrell for reminding me you're annoying.

[Lamb18]

I didn't get the Sylvester Stallone commercial. So far I think the commercials for other TV shows are the best. (They're short.)

The Pepsi ones are blah although it was nice to see Steve Martin.

Good for Eagles!! I guess I want them to win.

I had a Pepsi Zero just this afternoon.  It was my last one because aspartame = bad, but if not for that, I would have one every day.

I may be the world’s biggest non-fan of Will Ferrell.  The Bridgerton-adjacent lady was the best part.

[bluegirl147]

By the end of the night will there be a celeb who didn't do a SB commercial?

Colin Kaepernick?

If KC can't get a stop, then we're just playing out the clock here.

I had a Diet Pepsi this morning.  I admit to being no one.

[Lady Whistleup]

Oh shit.

[Popples]

OH NO!

[bluegirl147]

Well that is an interesting turn of events

[Chit Chat]

Well, that more than made up for the KC missed field goal.  Rats!

[Lantern7]

This might be a classic. 🤞🤞

[Chit Chat]

Who dropped it?  I missed it, and I can't rewind.  

[AimingforYoko]

Just as it was looking like Philly was about to take control of the game, the first big turnover.

[DoctorAtomic]

That guy just flat out dropped the ball.

[Lamb18]

Oh crap. But it makes the game more interesting.

[Calvada]

Hurts.

[Magog]

Damn Fumble.

I don't know what Uber One is about, but I'm not interested & I'm not here for Diddy promoting it with his "no jingles".

[Black Knight]

I'm rooting for the Eagles, but I don't hate this. I'd like the game to go down to the last minute.

[meowmommy]

Seems to be a run on commercials that have absolutely nothing to do with the sponsor.

As a Big Blue fan, I just can't root for Philly.  So I enjoyed that fumble.
