📝 Preparation Steps
1
Cut off the stems of the jalapeno or bell pepper of choice. Then, cut them off in half and take out the seeds. Make sure you wear gloves if you're working with jalapenos!
2
Mince 10-14 pieces of shrimp until it forms a paste.
3
To make the filling, mix 1/2 pound ground pork, minced shrimp, 1 tsp soy sauce, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp chicken bouillon, 1 tbs olive oil, 1 tbs corn starch, and 1 egg.

4
Mix in one direction for 50 times until the filling is gelatinous and sticks together. Add 1 tablespoon of water in the beginning and middle of mixing. This produces a more tender filling.
5
Sprinkle some corn starch on the inside of the jalapeno to ensure that the filling sticks to the jalapeno during frying. If you skip this step, the filling and the jalapeno might fall apart during cooking.

6
Place the filling in the jalapeno and set aside for pan-frying.
7
Heat pan to medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add 2 tablespoons oil. Add the jalapenos face down and give it a gentle push so the meat adheres to the jalapeno more. Fry jalapeno for ⏱️ 4-5 minutes with a cover.
8
Flip the jalapeno over and add some chopped garlic to the oil. Fry for ⏱️ 1-2 minutes until the jalapeno slightly softens. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
