 CHINAMAN'S SALAD 



Gained a lot of weight during CNY, so I'm going on a low carb diet for a month or two to try to lose a couple of kilos..... This recipe was inspired by a meal I had in a cafe a few months ago.....


Ingredients 

2 eggs 

Carrot 

Cucumber 

Baby butterhead lettuce 

2 tablespoons Crispy pork lard and oil 

1 tablespoon Spicy black bean paste 

1 tablespoon Oyster sauce 

1 tablespoon Sesame oil 

1 tablespoon black rice vinegar

100g minced pork


Method 

In a pot of hot salted water cook the eggs for 7mins and dunk it into cold water...... Peel the shell off and cut into halves 

Cut the carrot and cucumber into thin strips and dress with the black bean sauce, vinegar and pork lard 

Marinade the minced pork with sesame oil and oyster sauce. 

In a pot of hot water, cook the pork till it changes colour...... Do not overcook it..... Drain the water and put it aside.....


On a plate, line it with butterhead lettuce, place the carrot and cucumber in the middle with the eggs and minced pork on the side and you've oft a fantastic low carb meal that will keep u feeling full till the time for your next meal.... 

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.
