Steamed Bean Curd Skin With Ginger Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Steam tofu over gentle heat for six to seven minutes to warm the tofu (I always use the rice cooker to steam the tofu while the rice is cooking); remove and set aside.
• Heat oil in a wok, fry ginger, garlic and shallots till crisp and golden.
• Remove but leave the oil in the wok.
• Add the sauce ingredients to the wok and bring to boil.
• Reduce the heat and simmer until sauce thickens slightly; pour hot sauce over tofu.
• Top with the crisp garlic, ginger and shallots, and finally the garnishing ingredients, serve immediately.

Steps:

• Wet the sheet of beancurd.
• Fold it 5 or 6 times, then cut it into retangular pieces.
• Place on a heatproof plate.
• Combine ginger, garlic, carrot, soy sauce, oils, sugar, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Spoon mixture over beancurd pieces.
• Steam over rapidly boiling water 2 to 3 minutes or until cooked.
• Line a serving plate with blanched Hong Kong kai lan.
• Arrange the steamed beancurd on the green vegetable.
• Garnish and serve.

Steps:

• Mix together the pork, the egg, 1 tablespoon of the cornstarch, the five-spice powder, 1 tablespoon of the scallions, 1/2 teaspoon of the sugar, 1/4 teaspoon of the sesame oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place the vegetable oil in a hot wok over very high heat, then add small clumps of the pork mixture. Stir-fry for about 1 minute, or until the clumps are browned and cooked through. Remove from wok and reserve.
• Lower the heat to medium. Add to the wok, 6 tablespoons of scallions, the minced red pepper, the minced green chile, the minced garlic, and the minced ginger root. Stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the browned pork and stir well, tossing with the remaining 2 1/2 teaspoons of sugar. Turn heat high and add the chicken stock, soy sauce and oyster sauce. Stir well and bring to a boil. Mix the remaining 2 teaspoons of cornstarch with a little cold water in a cup, then stir into the wok. Gently stir in the bean curd cubes, taking care not to break them up.
• Remove from wok and place on serving platter. Sprinkle with the remaining half-teaspoon of sesame oil.
