Recipe : Pork with mushrooms and salted fish

DSCN0028.JPG

All the ingredients you need are shown in the above plate. This is a very easy dish and it is excellent with white rice. Most Chinese homes who cook Hokkien dishes make this their staple dishes.

So, what are the ingredients needed?

300 grams pork, slice or minced – rub with some cornflour to make it smooth

Tiny piece of ginger and few pips of garlic, chopped

Some chopped carrots

Salted fish, tiny slice, cubed (omit if you do not have)

One teaspoon of taucheo or fermented soy bean

Two dried Chinese mushrooms, cubed

Add – 1 stalk red chillies and 1 spring onions (I omit because my children do not like it.)

1 tablespoon oil, enough water to simmer

Dash of pepper

Method :

1) Heat oil

2) Stir fry garlic, ginger, salted fish and taucheo till fragrant

3) Add mushrooms, meat and carrots and continue to stir fry (add chilli and spring onions too)

4) Add some water and simmer till meat is soft

5) Taste. Usually, you only need pepper for flavourings because both the taucheo and salted fish are salty enough.

    I also enjoy veggies through the celery-potato-carrot combi. And yes, I think it would be a good idea as you suggested to add dried fish and mushrooms. I hope to cook this dish sometime soon. I hope you won’t mind. Surely, will keep you posted how it went.

    Cheers!
