Hei San Duo is one of the most common home-cooked dishes in Yunnan.

黑三剁是一道简单易做，好吃平价的云南地方家常菜肴。它开胃下饭，可以和米饭，面条，米粉，蔬菜等一起搭配享用。

Hei 黑 here refers to the dish’s black colour, San 三 refers to it’s three main ingredients, pork, chilli peppers and typical Yunnan kohlrabi pickles (where black colour of the dish comes from) while Duo 剁 or ‘to mince’ is what we do with the ingredients (before finally frying them together.)

黑是指这道菜的颜色；三代表三种主要食材：猪肉馅，辣椒，以及云南特有的腌制玫瑰大头菜（这道菜的黑色主要来自玫瑰大头菜)；剁代表烹饪前食材的处理，即切末。

If you are looking for a flavourful dish that can be cooked within a half-hour, Hei San Duo is a good choice. it can also be a vegetarian/vegan-friendly dish by simply substituting the pork with minced mushrooms and tofu.

如果你正在寻觅一道味道浓郁，下饭快手的菜肴，黑三剁是最好的选择。如果想创作素食/全素的版本，可以用豆腐或蘑菇等食材替代其中的猪肉馅。

The dish should be sweet, salty and spicy with a balanced texture from the slightly chewy meat and crunchy vegetable ingredients. To adjust the spiciness, you can choose different types of pepper; usually, local chilli peppers are quite spicy in Yunnan! If the pickled kohlrabi is not easy for you to find, you can use any other pickles instead, or simply change the pickles for tomatoes and create a Hong (Red) San Duo!

这道菜集甜、咸、辣为味道于一身。口感上，肉末的嚼劲带着蔬菜的松脆。你也可以依照个人口味, 选择不同品种的辣椒，来满足对不同辣度的需要。云南特产的青红云椒是比较辣的。如果你在市场上找不到玫瑰大头菜，也可以用任意咸菜、酱菜或泡菜代替；或者将其换成西红柿，那就做成了另外一道云南家常菜：红三剁！

Kohlrabi (from the German for cabbage turnip; Brassica oleracea Gongylodes Group), also called German turnip, is a biennial vegetable, a low, stout cultivar of wild cabbage. It is the same species as cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, Brussels sprouts, collard greens, Savoy cabbage, and gai lan. It can be eaten raw or cooked. Edible preparations are made with both the stem and the leaves. Despite its common names, it is not the same species as a turnip – from Wikipedia. 苤蓝的中文介绍请点击此链接
