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!!

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...

Dong Po Rou (东坡肉)

Dong Po Rou (东坡肉) – wine braised pork belly. It’s rich and savoury, tender that melts into your mouth. Traditionally, the pork belly is pan-fried before being braised or stewed for one to one and a half hours on low heat. Some of the recipes even call for steaming for an additional half an hour after stewing. It is very time-consuming. But as you are aware, I enjoy making recipes simpler without compromising the taste. You, too, I'm sure. Therefore, I skipped the pan-frying step and proceeded directly to braising the pork after blanching it, and then continued to cook with a pressure cooker. Don't worry; the dish's flavour remains unaffected. I'm hoping this simplified method may come in handy for your regular cooking. Trim off the edges of the pork and cut it into 3x3 cubes. Tie cooking twine around each cube. This will assist the cubes in keeping their form while cooking. If the pork that you bought is at the mid portion of the belly is ideal, there is a nice bala...
