I've found this method of Siu Mai with sticky rice from Japanese cuisine in the kitchen I work, but it works perfectly well with minced pork. It's important to soak the rice overnight so that the rice will be soft enough when it's steamed with the meat.
I've found this dish on the Youtube channel of Chinese cooking. We don't use pressed tofu in Japanese cooking, so I was not very familiar with this ingredient.
It seems that there are many ways to cook this, and I cooked it with pork and Chinese stock this time. I really loved how it turned out.
My recipe of Mapo doufu is from Tsuji culinary institute which uses beef instead o ground pork. We don't like it to be too spicy but it's important to use Sichuan pepper. If you like it you should put plenty of it.
Grouper is an extremely tasty fish and Chinese cooking way of steaming the fish is the best way to have this fish. I love putting lots of herbs on the top then drizzle very hot peanuts oil.
These wontons are pork and Chinese chives I would call it Taiwanese style of wontons. Because I've lived for many years in Hong Kong, wontons for me is definitely shrimps.
There are few ways of making of the Chinese style of braised pork, but I've tried this for the first time. As a conclusion, I ended up thickening the sauce slightly too much in the end but the taste was great. My skill is not there yet that I need to improve it.
Hong Kong style noodles in Singapore means thin egg noodles. This is not exactly an authentic Cantonese noodle but it tastes great. It needs to be boiled first then pan-fried it with soya sauce. I added vegetables and shrimps stir fry on the top.
I made Chinese way of stir fry of lean pork with string beans. Though I precooked this dish then reheated on a pan, which is a big no for Chinese cooking, it became like the dish as the photo. Though the taste was good.
Shrimps with Broccoli stir fry with thin egg noodle was a great combination. The sauce from shrimp was excellent with this type of noodle. It reminds me of "Lobster Yi mein" in Hong Kong.
I love Gyoza either it's Japanese grill-style or Chinese boiling style. I can choose a few kinds of skin from a local supermarket and "Shanghai" skin is my favourite these days.
For the first time in a long time, I made a Japanese Chinese dish of "Chili Shrimps". This is not exactly an authentic Chinese dish but a Chinese chef in Japan invented it a long time ago and now many people love it.
This looks similar to Singaporean Chili crab sauce but the ingredients are totally different. It uses fermented chilli beans called "Doubanjiang" from Sichuan, tomato sauce and ketchup are used.
I often make this dish with shrimps but I've realized that chicken breast would make a good dish. This is very much an American Chinese type of dish but making it with authentic Chinese cooking method, it becomes a wonderful and cost-effective dish.
I've found this very rare leaf vegetable called "Brazilian Spinach" the other day. I used it for the first time but it was absolutely delicious as a stir fry and it was perfect with beef.
I've always found herbs infused Chinese tofu is delicious. I usually have them with Duck Rice at Hawker. I've found a recipe in my favourite Youtube site so I've tried with chicken stock with fewer herbs.
This is a classic Cantonese dish that is easy to cook at home. It's important not to overcook shrimps and the eggs. Both ingredients are very sensitive so you need to focus when you're cooking.
I love the Chinese method of stir fry of meat and vegetables. It's not easy to master but it's a brilliant way to have meat and the vegetable together.
I've encountered with this dish on Chinese food stool and I've always wondered how to make them. The reason is that we have this type of "Fried Tofu" called "Atsuage" in Japan is sold at the supermarket so that you don't need to deep fry the tofu by yourself but I could never find it here. Then I've realized that you have to fry it at home to make it after watching this video.
I really love the flavour of this dish, a combination of dried Shigake and dark; a mix of oyster sauce and dark soya sauce.
I have some oils made in my fridge; Leek oil, Shrimp oil and duck fat. Beside duck fat, Infused oils are used for Chinese cooking. It gives better fragrance for sauteing of meat or vegetables.
I usually steam smaller fish but I tried with good size of red grouper for the first time. This fish is considered as the most delicious fish in Cantonese steamed fish and I've convinced with that, it was absolutely delicious.
You need to have a small stand to set a plate in a wok to steam the fish. When the fish is too big to set in a steamer, it needs to be set directly in a wok.
