Snails are a rustic and familiar dish, delicious to everyone from North to South. In Hanoi, we have snail noodles, snails with banana flowers, and snails steamed with lemon leaves. Meanwhile, people in the South have their own specialty snail dish, which is green pepper steamed snails, not inferior to any snail dishes in Hanoi.
Let's get into the kitchen and make this green pepper steamed snails dish right away.
Ingredients:
- Apple snails: 1kg
- Green pepper: 5-7 branches (about 50g)
- Chili powder
- Green chilies: 2 pieces
- Garlic: 1 bulb
- Lime: 1 piece
- Seasonings: fish sauce, seasoning powder, sugar, salt, cooking oil
- Assorted fresh herbs.
How to make green pepper steamed snails:
- Soak the snails in water with a few chili peppers for about 3-4 hours to allow the snails to release all dirt.
- Peel and finely chop the garlic.
- Wash and crush green pepper.
- After soaking, clean the snails and use a knife to cut off the tail part.
- Boil a pot of water with a pinch of salt. When boiling, blanch the snails briefly to remove their scales. Then, transfer the snails to a basket to drain.
- Place a pan on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. When the oil is hot, add chopped garlic and sauté until fragrant. Then add crushed green pepper (reserve a little for dipping sauce) along with fish sauce, sugar, a little seasoning powder, and ½ cup of boiled water. Cook until the mixture thickens, then turn off the heat to get the green pepper sauce.
- Drizzle the green pepper sauce over the mouth of each snail.
- Next, arrange the snails one by one in a clay pot or ceramic bowl, then place them in a larger pot for steaming. Steam the snails for about 4-5 minutes until cooked.
- While waiting for the snails to cook, let's prepare the snail dipping sauce:
+ Cut the lime in half, squeeze out the juice.
+ Blend the remaining green pepper with green chili, lime juice, and 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, add a pinch of salt, sugar, and season to taste.
This dish is best enjoyed hot with assorted fresh herbs and the green pepper dipping sauce above. The crispy, flavorful snail pieces combined with the spicy, fragrant green pepper sauce will give you a unique and truly enticing experience.
