Salted egg fried rice （咸蛋黄炒饭）

Fried rice is a common home dish. Plain white rice is transformed into a flavorful dish with seasoning and thrown with vibrant vegetables by a quick stir-fry. What a beautiful thing!

I'd like to share this umami shrimp-flavored salted egg yolk fried rice with you today. The flavour of the salted egg yolks and the shrimpy taste from sautéing the shrimp head until the shrimp tomalley is beginning to stick to the wok. It’s so good.

The egg is one of the components of this fried rice. It is not the same as regular fried rice, which involves scrambling the egg, breaking it up into little bits, setting it aside, and then adding it back to the rice. Rather, I beat the egg and combine it with the leftover cold rice. Make sure the egg coats each and every grain of rice. As a result, the rice will appear to be golden in hue.

It is best to use cold, leftover rice since the starches in the grains harden when stored in the fridge, making it simpler to separate and cook in the wok. Sometimes I cook the rice the day before so that I can make fried rice for my breakfast the following morning. For ordinary rice, the proportion of rice to water is 1:1. Use rice that has chilled in the refrigerator for at least one night to avoid sticky rice. When stir-fried, freshly cooked rice becomes quite sticky.

Let us get all the ingredients and get started on the delicious umami fried rice. Do you already feel full?

INGREDIENTS

3 cups overnight rice

100g shrimps, deveined

1 large, diced onion

3 eggs

3 salted egg yolk, steamed and mashed

5. Place the fired rice on the plate, top with a sunny side up. Enjoy!!

Pumpkin Sago Dessert（南瓜西米露）

Pumpkin is a very good food material, suitable for men, women and children. Although it tastes very sweet, it does not contain high sugar content. It can even be eaten by diabetics. Pumpkin sago is a dessert that many people like because it does not harm the body. So, how to make pumpkin sago? This creamy, smooth pumpkin sweet soup is one of my favorites. So aromatic with coconut milk. Since the soup tends to thicken, I prefer it to serve hot rather than cold. I prefer to cook coconut milk in the soup with a little salt. Coconut milk is naturally sweet and rich. Salt helps to balance these flavors, making the soup more palatable and enjoyable. Others may prefer to drizzle some coconut milk on top before serving. The main ingredients of pumpkin and sago are pumpkin and sago. The general method of cooking sago is to boil water in a pot, pour in sago and cook on low heat for about 10-15 minutes. Turn off the heat when only a little white spot is left in the middle of the ...

Hakka Braised Pork Belly with Black Fungus

There was once I went to a bookstore and found this "The Hakka Cookbook" by accident. This book's subtitle is "Chinese Soul Food Around the World". According to the text, Hakka food exhibits the Hakka people's economical, not luxurious, and generous hospitality. Hakka cuisine has many health benefits because the Hakka people are dedicated to their pursuit of methods of preserving health and are skilled in utilizing the scientific principles concealed in nature. Hakka food has currently established itself as a representation of Cantonese cuisine. The two primary specialties are Hakka-stuffed tofu and salt-baked chicken. This meal is available at restaurants and is highly well-liked. Braised Pork Belly with Black Fungus is one of the dishes from this book that I have come across. Although the black fungus does not have a pleasing appearance, it is incredibly nutrient-rich. A daily intake of 5 to 10 grams of black fungus can support cardiovascular heal...

Ants Climbing A Tree (蚂蚁上树）

This dish is really interesting– Ants Climbing Trees! The name sounds like a small animal, but it is actually made with vermicelli or glass noodles and minces meat. This dish may seem simple, but it is actually rich in content. It is mainly made of glass noodles paired with fresh minced meat, and carefully seasoned with ginger, garlic, shallots, spicy bean paste, soy sauce, sugar and other condiments. Sometimes I cook it and serve it alone as breakfast, lunch, and even dinner. Sometimes I serve it with white rice. Either way, it is a very satisfying dish on my dinner table. The glass noodles were smooth, the minced meat was fragrant, and it tasted a little spicy due to the spicy bean paste. It was delicious. The reason why this dish name as “ants climbing trees” is because the fried minced meat looks like little ants climbing on the “branch” of glass noodles. When preparing Ants Climbing a Tree, keep in mind that the glass noodles will absorb the sauce quickly. Incre...
