Butter Stir-fried Bell Peppers Butter Stir-fried Bell Peppers
My mother used to make this for me for my bento early every morning before she went to work. The bell peppers are stir fried until limp, and flavored well with margarine and soy sauce! It's one of my favorite recipes, handed down to me by my mother.Just stir fry the peppers until softened, and flavor on the strong side. This is a great bento item, but it doesn't stay fresh as well in the heat, so be careful about that. For 3 to 4 servings. Recipe by yakopuyo cookpad.japan -

Stir-fried Bell Peppers and Chikuwa Stir-fried Bell Peppers and Chikuwa
I wanted to do something with the bell peppers in the refrigerator.The chikuwa fish sticks are seasoned with salt, so add half the chicken soup stock and taste before adding more. I think 1 teaspoon is pretty salty, so it's good if you're using this as a drinking appetizer.I usually add 2/3 teaspoon of chicken stock. Crush the sesame seeds between your thumb and forefinger. For 1 to 2 side servings. Recipe by Kamerin cookpad.japan -

Green Bell Pepper and Shiitake Garlic Stir-fry Green Bell Pepper and Shiitake Garlic Stir-fry
I stir fried a freshly harvested bunch of bell peppers with Japan-grown garlic and butter-flavored margarine.The garlic I used was particularly aromatic, so I used 2 cloves, but generally 1 clove will do.When stir frying the bell peppers, flip them when they are roasted. You don't have to constantly toss the pan (as in Chinese style stir fry). Recipe by 1630412 cookpad.japan -
