Ingredients:
– soybeans
– fatty pork
– 1 onion
– 1 egg
– salt, pepper
Rinse the soybeans and soak them in cold water for several hours (overnight is best). In the morning, boil them until tender (about 2 to 2.5 hours), making sure they don’t boil over! After cooking, grind them twice using a meat grinder. Grind the fatty pork and a medium-sized onion in the same way. Add the egg, salt, and pepper, and mix everything thoroughly. Let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for a few hours (this allows the meat to release juices, which the soy will absorb). Then, all that’s left to do is shape and fry the patties.
I used a 1:1 ratio of ground cooked soybeans to pork. Keep in mind that soybeans double in volume when soaked and cooked, so if you start with 1 cup of dry soybeans, you’ll need an equal volume of pork for the filling. To ensure the patties are juicy rather than dry, it’s essential to use fatty pork.
