Stir-fried pickled radish with mushrooms in Sichuan spicy sauce (麻辣菜脯炒粒粒)




Everyone has their mother's "stir-fried food in a cube form" (麻辣菜脯炒粒粒), just the ingredients and seasonings may vary. This dish is about to take most of the ingredients left in the refrigerator to be cooked and placed on a plate. This is a quality of traditional mothers as well as a kind of longing for their flavour of them.

They all have complementary aromas, so no one ingredient in this dish has the dominant flavour.

This recipe for pickled radish cuisine is always delicious and capable of increasing your hunger. Today, I'm going to share a delicious recipe for pickled radish with mushrooms in a spicy Sichuan sauce. The most time-consuming step in making this dish is chopping all the ingredients into uniform-sized cubes because it involves a variety of mixed vegetables.

This dish is very flexible. If you don't like Chinese sausage, you may replace it with BBQ pork belly (char siu), use long beans in place of French beans, or add sweet corn kernels. You can cook food any way you like because to me it is entirely up to you and how you like it.


INGREDIENTS

1 pair of Chinese sausages

3 pcs dried shitake mushrooms

30g preserved radish

2 pcs dried chillies, add more to your preference

1 tbsp minced garlic

1 tbsp Shaoxing wine

1/8 tsp Sichuan peppercorn

1 tsp oyster sauce

1 tsp sugar

2 tsp sesame oil

 


METHODS

1. Soak mushrooms in water until soft and cut mushrooms into small pieces.

2. Diced sausage, French beans, and preserved radish.

3. Heat up a pan/ wok, pour a little oil, and sauté garlic, dried chili, and peppercorns until fragrant.

4. Add Chinese sausage and mushrooms. Give it a quick stir. 

5. Add Shaoxing wine and cook for 1-2 minutes, then add the diced frenched beans and the preserved radish and stir well. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of mushroom water to enhance the flavour of the dish or to prevent them from drying out. It is a great substitute for chicken stock in the recipes.

6. Finally, season with oyster sauce, sugar, and sesame. ENJOY!!

Canned braised pork belly (罐头扣肉)

A must-have dish for the Lunar New Year is steamed braised pork ( 扣肉 ). Some people enjoy making braised pork with yam, while others prefer to use preserved veggies. The key to making braised pork is to boil the meat first, then deep-fry it, and finally steam it. The sauces are the key to enhancing the flavor of the braised pork with either yam or preserved veggies. Of course, choosing pork that is half-fat and lean pork belly tastes the best is also crucial.   You can choose how thinly you want the pork slices. I sliced my pork to a thinness of 10 to 15 mm thinness.  Another crucial tip is to just use wine and no water when preparing the braised pork. I'm using Shaoxing wine, and it's been proven that the more wine you use, the tastier and more fragrant the meat will be and that the meat will remain fragrant after stewing. As I mentioned, this braised pork needs to boil first, then be deep-fried.  For those who find frying meat is very troublesome , you can wash, cut...

Ondeh-Ondeh in 3 flavour (椰丝球)

Today made a popular dessert in Malaysia, “Ondeh Ondeh”, a type of Nyonya recipe. It is also called “Buah Melaka” because it looks like the fruit of the Malacca tree. The procedure of making is easy. The flavoured glutinous rice balls have grated fresh coconut on the outside and melting Gula Melaka, or palm sugar, inside. The white, milky coconut shreds and little balls of various colours appear fresh and natural. and has a charming appearance. The glutinous rice balls, soft glutinous and chewy are determined by the amount of water and cooking time. The softer the rice balls, the more water and more time it boiled. We like our coconut shreds to be moist and crisp, the melted Gula Melaka to be rich and flavorful, and the texture to be somewhat mushy and sticky. It seems like the nostalgic flavour of my childhood is returning. In addition to the traditional pandan flavour, I have included instructions for making it with sweet potatoes and pumpkin. Of all the flavours of "ondeh...

Braised Pork Belly Char Siu on Stove

  Grilling char Siu is time-consuming? Yes, indeed!! The marinating and cooking steps involved in grilling char Siu might take a lot of time.   In order to allow the flavors to seep into the meat, the traditional process involves marinating the pork for a few hours, often overnight.   Additionally, grilling might take some time, particularly if you want that distinctive char. And also create a crispy surface and smoky flavor. You might say can make char siu, or Chinese BBQ pork with oven baking, or air frying. Oven baking produces an excellent crust and a balance of juiciness. Air fryer is the quickest way to produce a crispy outside and a soft within, although it might not cook as uniformly as oven baking. Today I am sharing a super easy stove top version. You even get a lovely sauce to go with it, and the results are just incredible. It lacks charred or roasted flavor of charcoal because it is cooked entirely on the hob.   Trust me, this method is definitely ...
