Directions
-
1Before starting, make sure all dried ingredients are washed, soaked, reconstituted and drained.
-
2To flavour the mince pork, mix it in a bowl with the nam yee, oyster sauce and soy sauce.
-
3In a skillet or wok on high heat, heat the oil. Then add the meat mixture and sear it for 30 seconds before stirring. Leave until almost cooked through, about 1 minute.
-
4Add daikon and fry for 1-2 minutes, until daikon starts to turn slightly translucent in the centre.
-
5Add the reconstituted and drained mushrooms, bean curd stick, wood ear fungus, lily bulb, and water. Bring to boil then cover the pan and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, until daikon is tender and dried ingredients are soft. If sauce has evaporated, add more water.
-
6In the final few minutes, add carrot and shrimp and simmer for 1-2 minutes.
-
7Finally add mung bean threads and let it absorb the sauce for 1 minute. Adjust seasoning.
-
8Dish up and serve with rice!
-
9Tip: I would advise adding the carrots in later because they soften very quickly and break down. The same happens to mung bean threads if overcooked. Shrimp, however, becomes very tough. Or according to my brother, turns into organic chewing gum.
