👨‍🍳 조리법

1
In a dry pan, lightly toast tea leaves, peanuts, and sesame seeds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn them.
2
In a blender, combine the toasted tea leaves, peanuts, sesame seeds, basil, mint, cilantro, and garlic. Add 1 cup of cold water and blend until a smooth paste forms. You may need to add a little more water to achieve the desired consistency.
💡 전문가 팁: If you don't have a blender, a mortar and pestle can be used, though it will require significant effort.
3
Transfer the paste to a pot. Add 4 cups of boiling water, salt, and white pepper. Whisk well and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
4
Prepare the toppings: stir-fry or blanch your chosen vegetables (like choy sum, long beans, preserved radish) and tofu. Season them lightly.
5
To serve, place a portion of cooked rice in a deep bowl or platter. Arrange the prepared vegetables and tofu over the rice. Sprinkle with additional roasted peanuts.
💡 전문가 팁: The toppings can be varied based on personal preference and availability.
6
Ladle the hot Lei Cha soup over the rice and toppings. Serve immediately.
💡 전문가 팁: The taste of Lei Cha is an acquired one; it can be slightly bitter and herbaceous. Adjust salt to your liking.
