Fried Black beans with Tau Kwa and green chili

I tried to re-make this dish based on my memory, one of the favourite dish in my family. I understand that my grandma taught my mum to cook this.

As this is my first time to try, I did not capture the exact portions for each ingredient, might improvise later.

Overall ingredients
Ikan bilis - about 2 tbsp
Black beans - 1 tbsp
Sliced garlic and shallots - about 5 cloves each
4 pieces of small size tau kwa
1 packet of green chili (get from Sheng Siong)

Method
1. Pre-fried the Tau kwa, set aside for later use.
2. Wash the ikan bilis, tap try with paper towel and fry after tau kwa. Set aside for later use. 
3. Put 1 tbsp of oil in wok and add in sliced garlic, fried till slight brown. Remove from wok.
4. Add another 1 tbsp of oil, add in the black beans and fry a while, add in shallots and fry till soft.
5. Add the garlic and ikan bilis to step 4 and continue to fry for 2 to 3 minutes.
6. Add in green chili and fry for another 2 to 3 minutes
7. Add in tau kwa and fry for another 2 to 3 minutes.
8. Add in 1 tbsp of light and dark soya sauce each, add in some msg and fish sauce.
9. Add in about 100ml water (for simmering), simmer (cover with lid) for 5 minutes.
10. At this point of time, can do the tasting and you can add 1 tsp of sugar and 1 tsp of curry powder to enhance the flavour.
11. Check the texture of green chili, if it has not changed color, add more water and simmer for another 5 minutes.

The end result is that the tau kwa and green chili should have absorbed all the flavours from black beans and ikan bilis.

Then the dish would look like this.. you can see there is some sauce underneath.
