There are a lot of version for steamed minced pork. I personally like the two versions among all. One is with secret ingredient - the salted fish, while the other one is with salted duck egg. Both are considered not so healthy though. The secret taste enhancer is the white pepper powder, so don’t forget about it.
This is a simple Chinese dish which looks bland but it tastes marvelous to me. What is your version then?
Steamed Minced Pork With Salted Egg 咸蛋蒸肉
Serves 5-6
Ingredients:
300gm minced pork
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 salted duck egg, egg yolk mashed
spring onion, chopped
Seasonings:
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1/2 tbsp oyster sauce
dashes of white pepper powder
Steps:
1. Mix up all the ingredients except the spring onion in a heave proved shallow bowl. Leave for 15 minutes.
2. Bring a pot of water to boil.
3. Sprinkle the chopped spring onion on top of the minced pork mixture. Steam for 20 minutes.
4. Best to serve hot with steamed rice.
I love both versions but I seldom cook either version at home cos I usually do not buy salted fish or egg. Another version I like is the one with pickled cucumbers but also another version I don't cook often at home.
ReplyDeletethat's actually a great idea to do it in a ramekin- especially for a meal just for 2 of us. Simple and clean!!!
ReplyDeletemust be very flavourful with the salted egg... so sinful but delicious!
