Mushroom Pork Ribs Noodles




This is another simple one-dish meal ........ 'Mushroom pork ribs noodles' aka 'Tung Koo Pye Kuat Meen', wholesome and tasty.







For a change I use the thicker and fatter type of Won ton mee and I find it to be just as crunchy.

Ingredients
  • 320 gm pork ribs, cut into 2 inch lengths
  • 300 gm pak choy, washed and cut into bite size
  • 100 gm dried mushrooms, soaked and stemmed
  • 1 star anise
  • 3 cups water
  • 2  tsp each of  - oyster sauce, light and dark soya sauce
  • 1  tsp salt
  • 10 gm rock sugar
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 servings of noodles
  • 2 tsp cornflour + 2 tbsp water for thickening
  • Some sesame oil
Preparation
  1. Wash and blanch the pork ribs in some hot water.  Remove and rinse in running water, drain and set aside.
  2. In a pot, boil the 3 cups of water with the star anise and mushrooms.  Once the water starts to boil, add in the pork ribs.
  3. Add in the salt, oyster sauce, light and dark soya sauce, rock sugar and black pepper.
  4. Cook under medium and low heat till the ribs are tender.
  5. Fine tune to taste and thicken with the cornflour mixture.
  6. Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to the boil, blanch the pak choy, drain and set aside.
  7. In the same pot of rapidly boiling water toss in the loosened noodles, one at a time.  Stir for about 2 mins. drain on strainer, rinse under running water for a second, then put back in the hot water, keep stirring.  Noodles are cooked once they're translucent.  Dish out and drain of water.
  8. Place noodles on a serving plate, drizzle in some light soya sauce and sesame oil, mix well.
  9. Add in the blanched pak choy, ladle the pork ribs and mushrooms together with a generous serving of  gravy.  Garnish with chopped chillies and add in a dash of pepper.

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.

Braised Pork Belly with Mui Choy ~ 梅菜焖五花肉

Mui Choy is preserved mustard greens and there are two types, one is salty while the other is sweet.  There are many ways of cooking mui choy with pork belly.  Instead of braising, you can steam it with minced pork but here I am using only the sweet mui choy and I braised the pork belly with it.  This is a flavourful dish and you can serve it with plain rice or plain porridge. Braised Pork Belly with Mui Choy   ~    梅菜焖五花肉 Ingredients  400 gm pork belly cut into bite size 100 gm  preserved sweet mui choy 3 cloves of garlic 2 slices ginger Seasoning for the pork belly 1 Tbsp dark soya sauce 1/4 Tbsp sugar 1/4 Tbsp sesame oil 1/4 Tbsp oyster sauce 1/2 tsp pepper 1/8 tsp light soya sauce Method Season the pork belly for about an hour or more.  Set aside. Soak the mui choy for 45 mins., rinse and squeeze dry.  Cut into slices Heat some oil in the wok, fry the mui choy.  Add in the ginger slices.  Stir-fry. Add in the pork  belly, fry for a while and

Steamed minced Pork with Mui Choy ~ 梅菜蒸猪肉

This is a homey, comforting dish which you can never find on the menu of a Chinese restaurant.  Perhaps you may find it in an economy rice stall.  There are two types of Mui Choy (梅菜) or preserved mustard, one is salty while the other is sweet and in this recipe, I used the latter.  The Mui Choy lends flavour and aroma to the dish and most often is paired with pork, either minced or pork belly chunks.  In this recipe, the minced meat must be with a bit of fat, otherwise the dish will turn out dry and dense.  Give this a try and see whether you like it or not.
