Alright, I guess it's time for some classic homely dishes now. Steamed minced pork is my thing. I've experimented with various ingredients: shrimp paste, preserved olive vegetables, water chestnut, cuttlefish, tofu, you get the picture. Today's dish is probably just another experiment of mine. But it's tasty, nonethless. Enjoy. Oh by the way, it's gorgeous with a bowl of rice.
Serves 2
Ingredients:
200g minced pork
2 chinese mushroom, soaked and diced
1 salted egg (yolk and white separately)
1 water chestnut, peeled and diced
1 tablespoon chinese wine
1 dash white pepper
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 tablespoon light soy sauce
spring onion, chopped (optional)
Method:
Mix all ingredients (except the salted egg) together. Pour in 1/2 of the egg white and mix well. Place the mixture on a steaming plate and top with the salted egg yolk (flattened by the knife).
Steam on high heat for 9 minutes and garnish with spring onion, if desired.
