- Cut pork into shreds (pick cheap lean cuts with less fat since this only cost $10hkd ~ less than $2usd).
- Add 1 tsp light soya sauce, 1/2 of oil and 3/4 tsp of corn starch & shaohing wine. Mix and put it a side. 15 mins marinating (we dont use salt since will make meat tough and chewy).
- Like before soak 30 mins before cutting.
- Pick 3 average size chinese mushrooms.
- Soak in cold water for 1hr or if in a rush like me use boiled hot water and soak for 15mins until soft. (if have time soak in cold water since if hot water mushroom is less tasty).
- Can drain cabbage n cut shreds (throw ends).
- Please remember to cut out the stems. The soaked mushroom water u can save them for udon soup base (just add little salt and chicken powder 1tsp and 150ml water, boiled together) or for other cooking purposes (max. 3 days in fridge).
- Slice mushroom n set aside to drain (if mushrooms hard soak longer).
- This is the rice cake called 年糕 u can buy them anywhere in chinese markets. Make sure pick ones that doesnt have plastic taste coz some brands suxs!.
- Before cooking it make sure u separate them or gonna stick together like mad..
- Mid heat, 1tsp of oil heat pan for a min and then fry pork until 80% then take it out. (just toss and turn them and dont burn :).
- Same pan without washing throw all veg n mushroom in "high" heat 1/2 tsp salt for 2 to 3 mins and take out (refer to my earlier receipe "pan fry baby cabbage" if needed to learn the techiques).
- Wash pan or if lazy like me just wipe it with a cloth or paper towel.
- Mid high heat add at least 2 spoonful of oil then place rice cake in. (please note they will stick together when pan frying so must keep on turn and toss them around) i prefer non stick pans or its gonna be a nightmare 😖 / or u need to add more oil to normal pans.
- After 1 min add 1 spoonful of dark soya sauce. quickly stir them (some might look burnt but dont worry just make sure all covered in sauce).
- Add all pork and veg into the pan and stir for 2~3 mins. Ideal colour of the dish is a mid light brown colour just add little dark soya sauce if needed. Taste rice cake if it is soft then its Done!.
- This dish i used bak choy last time. Traditional uses cabbage only. Besides these two type of veg i would not prefer others since gonna go weird. Enjoy!.
