Chilled Okra and Century Egg Salad

Ingredients

• 150 g Okra (Wash and remove the stems; blanch whole, then cut into pieces if desired)
• 1 Century egg (Peel and cut into chunks)
• 1 瓣 Garlic (Minced; amount estimated based on the video style)
• 1 tbsp Soy sauce (For seasoning; the exact amount was not specified in the source)
• 1 tsp Chinese black vinegar or rice vinegar (To add acidity; the exact amount was not specified in the source)
• 1 tsp Sesame oil (For tossing; the exact amount was not specified in the source)
• Chili pepper (Optional, sliced or minced; not explicitly mentioned in the source)

Steps

1. 1

   Wash the okra and trim the stems. Bring a pot of water to a boil, add the okra, and blanch for about 2 to 3 minutes, until bright green and tender while still crisp.

2. 2

   Remove the okra and immediately place it in ice water to cool, preserving its bright green color and crisp texture. Drain well, then cut into bite-sized pieces.

3. 3

   Peel the century egg, cut it into small chunks, and place it in a bowl.

4. 4

   Add the minced garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil. If you like spicy food, add the chili pepper as well. These seasoning proportions are estimated based on common chilled salad preparations; the original video did not provide exact quantities.

5. 5

   Add the okra and gently toss from the bottom so that the okra's mucilaginous juices, century egg, and seasonings combine evenly. Avoid breaking the century egg into overly small pieces.

6. 6

   Refrigerate for about 15 to 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy it as a chilled side dish, or mix it with cooked and drained noodles.

Notes

The source description and transcript only confirmed the dish name, okra, century egg, and characteristics such as a smooth, rich texture and suitability for chilled serving or mixing with noodles. They did not provide a complete ingredient list, seasonings, quantities, or clear instructions. Therefore, the version above is an estimated recipe compiled based on the video's theme and common chilled salad preparation methods, rather than a complete verbatim transcription.
