Bitter Gourd with sweet sauce

Ingredients : Bitter gourd, chinese leek, big onion, pork fillet

Sauce : one table spoon of oyster sauce, one table spoon of soya sauce, 2 pieces of rock sugar 2 table spoon of rice wine.

Not many people like bitter gourd because of the bitterness, including myself. But the method used here will be able to reduce the bitterness and therefore it is more acceptable.

Cut the bitter gourd into cube, and boil in hot water until it is 80% cooked.

Heat up the wok, fry the onion and slice leek until fragrant, add slice pork. Fry for 3 minutes before adding rice wine, oyster sauce, soya sauce and rock sugar. Finally add in the bitter gourd and simmer for 10 minutes until bitter gourd is soft.

The result is quite satisfying as the bitterness is reduced by boiling the bitter gourd in hot water, and it taste nice and tender.

Fried Shrimp Egg Smoothie

Ingredient : shrimp 300g, 5 eggs


Remove Shrimp the shell and keep dry. Fry shrimp until 80% cook.

5 eggs lightly beaten, add pin of salt, pepper, and chicken powder (optional), mix well. Wait until shrimp is completely cool before adding into the egg mix.

Heat up the oil, pour in the egg mix and continue to stir in round circle (clockwise or anti-clockwise, and must be in same direction), until the egg become smooth. If you leave the eggs frying without following the stiring motion, it will become normal fry egg, therefore this trick is very important to be successful.

When you taste the egg, it is wet and smooth which is quite different from the normal fried egg.
