Open Kitchen Hour 1 Cookalong - 06 March 2006
Beancurd Skin Stirfry Another fantastic Cookalong with Jackie juggling multiple tasks - frying pieces of meat on bone cut out from chicken carscasses, frying prawn shells for prawn stock & shredding up a boiled chicken to make Gai Si Hor Fun. I adapted a vegetarian dish from YouTube using beancurd skin (fuchuk). After dipping the cut up fuchuk in an egg & cornstarch slurry & shallow frying, I cooked it with mushrooms, fungus (muk yee), carrots, tomatoes, green pepper & spring onions. It looked great, but tasted bland, so I doubled the soya sauce & oyster sauce - still not quite right. I know it’s a veggie dish, but I am not veggie, so I wasn’t worried reaching out for the chicken powder - Jackie will be proud! 🤭 Added that with a bit more water & braised it for a couple of minutes. Magic! 😊 The flavours came alive & it was delicious!
