Directions
Treasures of the Earth (Chinese Stir Fry), This is a typical North-Eastern Chinese Dish, and has been my favorite ever since i came to study in Beijing 4 years ago. the Chinese name of this dish literally translated is earth three fresh (or three fresh produces of the earth) including eggplants, potatoes and green bell peppers. quick and easy to throw together, I like it with fried rice. Note: i timed myself when making this dish tonight and found that it took longer than i thought, esp if you make more or cut the pieces bigger, anyway cook the veggies to your desired tenderness, i like them extra soft, This is a typical North-Eastern Chinese Dish, and has been my favorite ever since i came to study in Beijing 4 years ago. the Chinese name of this dish literally translated is earth three fresh (or three fresh produces of the earth) including eggplants, potatoes and green bell peppers. quick and easy to throw together, I like it with fried rice.
