      ok, happy mama, shall continue our 东波肉 ......but i dunnohow to cook leh...haha


      Maybe we can google for some recipes? I saw on Channel 8, they mentioned shaoxing wine and ginger plus seasoning. Wonder if huatiao wine tastes similar to shaoxing wine.

      oh.....i think there's an error in my \"dong bo rou\" chinese characters, shd be 东坡肉, paiseh 😉

      actually the seasoning ingredients are rather simple,
      the usual cooking wine, sugar, ginger, spring onion, soya sauce....etc.
      remember that i told u b4, my hub tried once cookig this dish,
      but somehow the taste is diff from what i got from restaurants.

      maybe u can try it out and do a feedback.

      i had tried looking for shaoxing wine, but to no avail at supermart,
      and i notice that the huatiao wine i had is also named shaoxing huatiao wine,
      maybe refers to the same thing, juz diff name....i am wondering too....

        I only have Huatiao wine at home... so if I cook, most likely I will be using this, unless I can find Shaoxing wine at the supermarkets... but the only thing I dislike about Dong Bo Rou is that the pork is too large a piece. I still prefer thinner slices to that the inside is properly cooked and actually more tasty too since more surface area is coated with the seasoning... just my own preference though. 😉 😛

          i think can use huatiao, shd be ard the same taste.
          too big piece ? cut in smaller lor,
          maybe becos if it is too small piece, not so tender.

            But Dong Bo Rou must be square shaped mah. If thinner slice, then not Dong Bo already. It becomes Kou Rou. 😉

              ya, the other time, hub cut it into the length of 4-5 inch.
              remember to deep fried for longer time, more fragance.

                      as for me, seldom use pumpkin in chinese cooking, unless western soup.

                        Wow what fruit juice did you mix with? I just bought a green papaya yesterday. Intend to boil chicken soup with it, but need to read through all the pages in the Soup thread to find the recipe as I forgot to save the recipe...
