【塔香广式烧肉】Thai Basil Stir Fry Cantonese Roast Pork

小时候每次过节或者拜拜剩下的广式烧肉妈妈就会加一把九层塔回锅煸炒,这样加工过的烧肉风味更佳,非常好吃。

去年冬天我在门口撒了一把九层塔种子,结果今年夏天家门口就九层塔泛滥了。现在已经来到了初秋,在它们被冻死之前努力吃九层塔,今天午餐就做塔香脆皮烧肉,烧肉是超市熟食部买来的,不够肥,这么做仍然非常美味。 

I have way too many Thai basil plant this year, I keep pulling them out to use in my dishes and I still have so many. But the weather is getting colder by the day, they won’t last for much longer, so you guys will be seeing a lot of Thai basil dishes from me before winter 😂 .

【蒜香奶豆腐咖喱】Lehsuni Paneer

 

奶豆腐是北印度非常受欢迎的食材,做法也很多,会和菠菜做成菠菜奶豆腐,或加和豌豆做成豌豆奶豆腐,还有俊宝很爱的奶香奶豆腐,还可以做成接近中式口味的酸甜奶豆腐,反正做法很多也都非常美味。

今天做的这款蒜香奶豆腐是蒜味比较浓郁的咖喱,沾着面饼特别好吃。

Paneer is a very popular cooking ingredient in North India, and there are many ways to use it in dishes. 

It can be made with spinach to make Palak Paneer, or cook with some peas to make Matar Paneer, and also my son's favorite Paneer Makhanwala, there are just so many ways to use the ingredients and turned it into delicious dishes.

The Lehsuni Paneer I made today is a creamy restaurant style North Indian Curry recipe, it uses a bunch of garlic in the recipe and have a strong garlic flavor, making it unique and very delicious serving with flat bread.

If you like garlic, you ought to try this!

【家常回锅肉】Home-style Twice-cooked pork


出差吃了快十天的西餐,非常想念热腾腾的白米饭配好吃的下饭菜。

刚好出门前冰箱也被我清得空空如也了,出门买菜时看见很久没吃的蒜苗/青蒜上市,买一把蒜苗,和一些五花肉,回家做一盘咸香下饭的回锅肉,真是好满足的一顿饭。

I have been on a business trip for more than a week, that many days of restaurant dining is all that I can handle. I was already craving for some hot steamed rice with home cook dishes for days.

Since I emptied the refrigerator before my trip, I went out to get some groceries after reaching home, the nearby Asian market has some fresh garlic chive on shelve and I hadn’t have fresh garlic chive for a long time. So I bought a bunch of garlic chive and some pork belly to make this twice cooked pork dish. This is one of my favourite Sichuan dishes, it really hit the spot and is precisely what I was looking for!
