My friend’s mom comes home from work and she needs to cook lunch, but she’s tired, she doesn’t want to cook some complicated dishes, she just wants to have lunch right away. So she opens the fridge and she sees the eggs. Oh, and she immediately decided she was going to make an egg dish. She usually makes eggs with green peppers or tomatoes. Take out 4-6 eggs and some green peppers or tomatoes to make a lunch dish. Today we share my friend’s moms recipe for scrambled eggs with tomatoes, because her daughter, my friend, loves eggs with tomato!
What do you think of pork and eggs? This is a nice combination, do you want to know what kind of cuisine we can create using these two ingredients in Chinese food? Today we will be making pork egg rolls. This is a simple but complex dish. Why is it simple? Mainly because it is minced pork rolled in egg, similar to an omelet. However, preparing the meat and rolling the omelet into an egg roll does require a bit of skill. We start by mincing the meat with a knife. You can skip this step if you have ground pork on hand.
If you make this dish well, you will definitely gain a lot of fans. The taste of the egg roll with pork is light and salty, there is absolutely no spiciness or bitterness at all. In China, this is a popular dish. I hope you like it.
Hey, today we're going to make a weird dish! Why is it a strange dish? Because it has some ingredients that most people can't accept. In Cabbage egg soup, we don't just use eggs. This soup contains fresh chicken eggs, preserved eggs, and salted duck eggs. Maybe these eggs sound strange to you, but the soup tastes really delicious. If you want to learn about the strange eggs in this dish, then check out my detailed description of peeled eggs and salted duck eggs. If you come to China one day, you will find that these strange eggs appear in Chinese supermarkets, wet markets, and family kitchens. Because they have a special taste, some people like them, some people can't accept them, let me guess if you will like it or reject it?
Pork in Spicy Broth, also called shuizhu pork, is a Sichuan-style dish, and as most Sichuan dishes are spicy, meaning hot, so Pork in Spicy Broth is a spicy dish. But there are degrees of spiciness, you don’t need to use more chili peppers or hotter chili peppers, you just need to make the dish feel spicy. The first impression that people get from Sichuan Spicy Pork is that it is savory: it is really fragrant and very appetizing. Then, after tasting, they say “Wow, this dish is spicy, it makes me want to drink a lot of water!” Unlike spicy chicken, this dish is served hot. So you can eat it in winter. You can substitute any vegetables you like to eat, such as bean sprouts, napa cabbage, or carrots to this dish, these are good choices.
This is a variation of our General Tso’s Chicken recipe with fresh broccoli for color and texture. I have added a marinade for the chicken to give it that familiar restaurant taste. However, this is optional. If you prefer, just dredge the chicken in the egg yolk, then cover with the corn starch and flour.
Sweet and sour pineapple pork is a Cantonese dish. I had heard of this dish when I was a child, but I didn’t know its name, only using pineapple with fried meat. At the time I thought it was incredible, meat and fruit cooking together! I have never seen or tasted such a combination, growing up in the countryside. I only knew that vegetables can be cooked with meat. So my curiosity was finally answered when I learned about this dish at New Oriental Cooking School, what a special dish! We need to coat the meat in batter for frying and then cook it a second time. It’s new to me. It has a unique taste and I am sure people who like sweet and sour tastes will love this dish! Let’s cook this new dish together!Flavor: sweet and sour
Cuisine: Cantonese
This Chinese fried mushrooms recipe is the first recipe on My Chinese Home Kitchen to use a soft batter coating featuring whipped egg whites, and adds a sauce that is fundamentally Chinese, using sesame oil, scallions, ginger, garlic, and onion. To avoid an oily, greasy batter, we use a two-stage deep-fry technique. We heat the oil, fry the mushrooms until the coating starts to turn yellow. This matures and sets the batter. Then the mushrooms are removed, and the oil is heated again to 150° C (300° F). Then the mushrooms are returned to the oil to give the batter a crispy texture and golden brown color.
In China, the staple food of southerners is rice. Most of the time we have rice for lunch and rice for dinner. Although the dishes are different every day, the constant is rice.
