Fresh shiitake mushrooms stuffed with fresh shrimp and minced pork (虾仁碎肉酿鲜菇)

 


Fresh shiitake mushrooms stuffed with fresh shrimp and pork are the ideal fusion of deliciousness and attractiveness.

This dish's ingredients are very straightforward. Mixture of pork, prawns, and stuffed into shiitake mushrooms. It can be said to be both wholesome and tasty. There is not greatest challenging technique in this recipe. It only requires a few minutes to steam it in a wok or pot.

Hand chops the prawns, combine with the minced pork and seasonings, fill the shitake mushrooms neatly, position them in a steamer, and steam them for 8 to 10 minutes on high heat. The water vapor circulates in the wok like magic, blending the flavours of the ingredients together, making it fresh and delicious and not greasy, simple, and delicious.

Place a whole piece of fresh prawn on top of the filling and steam everything together to make this simple dish appear even fancier and more appetizing for a party or gathering. Simply keep the prawn and filling together with a toothpick or bamboo skewer in case the prawns separate from the filling.

Then, pour over a thin sauce made from the steamed  broth, sprinkle some mashed salted egg, chopped green onions, and  drizzle a little red chili oil.  Wow…. what a delicious dish that looks fantastic.

The fresh shitake mushrooms' distinctive flavour is slightly masked by the delectable shrimp and juicy pork filling, and the shitake mushrooms themselves contain the mouthwatering broth that I can only describe in one word: FRESH!

I have concluded that this dish has straightforward ingredients, an easy technique, and is delicious right out of the pot.

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

Lazy dumplings for breakfast

  In our house, when the kids were little, this dumpling was the best breakfast option. Compared to traditional dumplings, this is considerably delicious, healthier, and easier. Having those lazy dumplings made and ready to re-steam for ten minutes as breakfast for kids or adults makes a big difference during the school weekday morning rush. My family will never tire of eating it every day. Family members will occasionally ask to have it made for lunch or perhaps dinner. The dumpling wrapper is the main ingredient in this delicious treat. I'm using store-bought dumpling wrappers since I want to make this dish as simple as possible. It was purchased from the market. It has a completely different filling than the pan-fried Japanese dumplings called gyoza. It has black fungus and scrambled eggs in it.   Egg gives a simple and nutritious breakfast choice. Black fungus has relatively high protein and fiber.   One thing good about this lazy dumpling is you don’t have to pleats along th

Osmanthus fried wings (桂花翅)

Whenever I went to a wedding meal. The first "Hot and Cold" dish, particularly the scrambled eggs with shark fin and crab meats, is always devoured by the diners. It turns out that it goes by the extremely lovely name of osmanthus Wings ( 桂花翅 ). Due to the propaganda to protect sharks. The restaurant no longer serves this dish with shark fins. In Hong Kong, osmanthus fried wings with sweet-scented osmanthus are a unique meal. You can find interesting names for their items on the menu if you ever pay attention to it. when you order something only to discover that it is not what you ordered. This meal is comparable to another one called "ants on the tree,” ( 蚂蚁上树 ) which is stir-fried vermicelli with minced pork. Originally, Osmanthus fried wings are not using real shark fins, but imitation shark fins which are replaced by vegetarian fins are made of gelatin, or you may also substitute with vermicelli. The scrambled egg looks like osmanthus fragrans, so it is called os
