Last night dinner:


1. Chinese spinach in soup
I first boil a small pot of soup leftover from previous dinner (meatball+brown button mushrooms). Then stir fry the Chinese spinach, add a little seasoning. Dish up the veg in a shallow Corningware, sprinkle a few wolfberries, pour the hot soup on the veg. Ta ta : restaurant style Chinese spinach in superior soup

2. 艾草炒蛋
The boys did not like this, end up I finished the whole dish.

Wow, how does the ai cao taste? Hrd it s very good for women to relieve body wind. Can share how you cook it? Think I should get some to fry for myself for lunch

Your spinach sounds good!

Jennifer:

Check with u why coat with plain flour? Cake flour or corn flour can do? Also bake for how long? I am still unable to agar the baking process, either under baked or dry out :gloomy: pls help :thankyou:

The original recipe didn't call for plain flour, hehe, I just huntum. Read somewhere cake flour is lighter, can yield crispier texture. Yet, some use self raising flour. Or plain flour + baking powder. So I tried these few, and found self raising flour seems to be have the crispest skin.

I tried 190 for about half an hr , then use tongs to flip the wings over, bake till brown. I placed the wings on rack, over a tray lined with aluminum foil to collect the oil. The wings must not swim in oil, else it ll be oily and not crispy.
The downside is scrubbing the rack.
I saw happyhomebaking blog on grilling Saba fish, she lined the rack with baking paper and poke holes in it for the oil to seep through to the tray. Very good idea!

I ve also tried marinating with curry powder, salt and pepper. Or the Kentucky fried chicken premix flour. Think the longer you marinade the more lu4 wei4 it ll be.

:thankyou:

艾草炒蛋 think the 艾草 is a bit too old, hence the taste is quite strong. I fried this dish the same way as chives with eggs or spring onions with eggs.

The Chinese spinach in soup style is a change from the dry version. My children do not like century egg/salted egg. If hubby is eating, I will first fry the salted egg yolk to sandy, then add the soup. The Chinese spinach is stir fry in the normal way, just not fully cooked through. Once dish up, will pour the hot soup onto the veg and then topped with cubed century egg and cubed salted egg whites and a few wolfberries for colour and a few fried whole peeled garlic. Hubby loves it this way.

Will try the baked chicken wings once my elder boy finishes his exams this week.

buds,

finally…ur food always look soooo delicious…catering for me?

Hi Imai surprisingly the Japanese curry tasted quite good. First I stirfry the onions until fragrant or soft, then I throw in the chicken fillet which I cut into cubes first and fry for about two minutes, then throw in carrots and potato. Stirfry for another two minutes before adding water. When carrots and potatoes turn soft, I put in the jap curry cubes and just stir until it melts. It's done. I only used one pot ie corningware casserole --from stir frying to serving on the table. Washing up is easy too

Hi buds what sauce did you use to steam the sea bass? Is it asam?
