Happy Chinese New Year!! Oops... I think it is over soon! :P Anyway, how's your CNY so far? Mine, was good. Got a reunion dinner at in-laws, a little bit of fishing and I finally made this Chinese Radish Cake. I remembered mum used to make this and the New Year Cake (Niangao 年糕) every Chinese New Year .
I missed those days.
Anyway, have you tried the Chinese Radish Cake before? This is my all time favourite whenever I go yum cha. They normally served as a pan fried dim sum. But lately, they are also served as a steamed dish which I find more original and healthy. Mum used to fry radish cake with XO sauce and it is yummmm~
This batch I made it a bit lumpy but the taste was great. According to my father-in-law, he said next time I can put a little bit more water, then it should turn out smoother :D Thank God that I have a father-in-law who can really cook!
There are many different recipes in the internet world, this time I picked the one from Day Day Cook 日日煮. Yes, it is a Chinese site, but you can choose to read in English. Awesome right? I know! So now you can cook Asian food without any trouble! :)
Dumplings, something like pizza. I know it is a bit weird to use pizza as an example, but seriously, you can have many different fillings, just like pizza has different toppings, right?
Another variation you can do with dumplings is how you cook them. You can pan fry, you can steam, you can deep fry or even boil them, depends on your personal preference. This time I chose to boil the dumpling and dipped with garlic vinegar.
This time I chose to use mince pork and Asian green (I used bok choy) as the main ingredients. I also put some dried shitake mushroom.
As for wrapping the dumpling, you can pick a method from my last post. The one I used is a bit complicated to explain but it is not too hard to make once you practise a few time. :D
