Oh, that old attraction. It hits when you least expect it, when you least want it.. when least appropriate.. but, it hurts so good…
Time to warm up the tummy with another simple and effective healthy recipe from China.
Lobster Cantonese Style
- 1 cup ground pork
- 1 tablespoon minced bamboo shoots
- 1 tablespoon minced water chest nuts
- 2 finely chopped greean onions
- 2 lobster tails defrosted and cut into 1/2 in cubes
- 1 clove garlic
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Light oil for the wok
- 1cup chicken stock
- 2 tablespoon rice wine
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 beaten eggs
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon soy
- 1/4 cup water
Mix pork, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts and onion. Add lobster cubes.
Heat wok with oil and fry garlic clove with salt and pepper. Remove garlic and add meat – fish mix. Pour in Liquids and add sugar. Bring to boil and reduce heat. Cover wok and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in eggs and continue cooking for 2 minutes.
Add water in which you have mixed the cornstarch and soy and let sauce thicken. Serve hot.
Since this is at best a pale dish, bring it to table on a colorful dish with a garnish of watercress or Chinese parsley. Besides, these tangy greens will compliment the richness of the lobster and pork. Yield: 6 servings.
Serve with crisp green salad, plain rice and fruit compote with slivered orange and lemmon peel for dessert.
