DINNER FROM SCRATCH IN 30mins!

 DINNER FROM SCRATCH IN 30mins!



Who would've thought that a dinner so satisfying could be served in 30mins from scratch?! It's rediculious, right? But trust me, this is good. Really good! Steamed eggs and steamed minced pork with basmati rice. And some crispy pork fat with dark soy sauce and chilli padi, the meal is transformed from something simple to something divine! When I prepare the crispy pork lard and fried onions, I prepare enough for the whole week. I hardly use any cooking oil to cook as I use the oil rendered from the fat to cook..... Tastes really good too! The following are what u need to make this deceptively simple yet tasty meal!


Wash and cook the rice........


Steamed minced pork ingredients

200g minced pork

1 teaspoon oyster sauce

1 teaspoon sesame seed oil

1 teaspoon light soy sauce

1 tablespoon water

1 teaspoon corn flour

2 teaspoons salted radish, washed

A dash of pepper

Finely chopped spring onions


Method

Mix everything thoroughly, put it on a dish and steam it for 15mins. Garnish with spring onions


Steamed eggs

2 eggs

Half a cup of water

1 teaspoon chicken stock

2 teaspoons light soy sauce

Some finely chopped spring onions and fried shallots

Method

Beat everything up in a bowl and steam it together with the minced pork. 15 mins is enough for both to be cooked

Such a simple meal yet it was unbelievably tasty. Really cheap too! Seriously, there's no excuse not to cook at home with a meal like this! Enjoy, everyone, and stay safe!

These recipes are good for those who want to cook for one or two without going all out but still wanting to enjoy good food. Simple to prepare and tasty food every time!

  CHAR SIU Now, just look at thise yummulicious goodness! Yes, it can be made at home too! In your oven toaster! you read it right! Oven toaster! That's how I make my char siu for one! The secret is all in the marinade, and I normally make enuf to marinade at least 1kg of meat, but after making the marinade, cook it for a while, till it boils and all the sugar is melted and it can be kept for months in the fridge. If u need to use it in small portions, follow the method below. Good enuf for a plate of wantan and charsiu noodles.
