【四喜丸子】Four-Joy Meatballs

好几年前过年的时候做过清炖狮子头,非常清淡好吃。一直想着下次过年要做一次四喜丸子,一转眼就好多年了。

今年买到了非常好的黑猪肉,就拿来做这个四喜丸子。四喜丸子代表团圆,是个寓意很好,也是喜庆宴会常备的菜肴。

希望今年大家都会四喜临门噢!

I made Lion's head meatballs in clear broth during the Chinese New Year several years ago. It is very light and delicious.

I have also been thinking about making these four-joy meatballs for Chinese New Year since.

Many years have passed, and I finally get to make it this year. I enjoyed it with rice and am very pleased with the result.

【酥炸藕片】Lotus Root Chips


一转眼就到了农历新年,今年没有回娘家过节,看见家乡朋友们都在准备年货和年菜了,我也寻思着做几个菜过年吧!

也顺势祝福大家蛇年快乐!

The Chinese New Year is here again in a blink of an eye. Since I am not back to my hometown for the celebration this year. I decided to make a few Chinese New Year dishes here for the occasion.

I also will like to take the opportunity to wish everyone a happy Year of Snake!
