March 12, 2012 By Delia

Prawn and shiitake fried rice is a delectable rice dish infused with Asian flavors. The shiitake adds “umami” to it, an indescribable taste that pleases the palette. Remove the chili if you are serving it to kids or guests. Replace it with fried garlic or serve it on the side

 

Serves 4

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups long-grain rice

2 tablespoons peanut oil

12 green prawns, deveined and peeled (tails intact)

1 onion, cut into wedges

5 garlic cloves, sliced

2 teaspoon finely grated ginger

4 spring onions, finely shredded

150g snow peas, trimmed, sliced

1/4 cup light soy sauce

2 tablespoons oyster sauce

 

Cook the rice according to packet instructions or until soft and fluffy. Spread it on a baking tray and let it cool for two to three hours.

Heat a tablespoon of oil in a wok over high heat. Stir-fry the prawns for two minutes or until they turn pink. Remove and set aside.

Place the remaining oil into the wok and heat it. Stir-fry the garlic, onions and ginger for a minute or two or until it becomes aromatic. Add the mushrooms and cook for another two to three minutes or until soft.  Place the snow peas in the pan and fry it along with the mushrooms for a minute until they turn bright green and crisp.

Put the rice into the pan and heat it for a minute or two. Stir in the soy sauce and oyster sauce. Mix until well combined. Add the shrimp. Gently mix. Divide the fried rice among individual bowls. Top them with chili and spring onions before serving. Serve warm.

Shiitake Mushroom and Egg Roll

January 27, 2012 By Delia

Shiitake mushroom and egg roll is a yummy dish that you can prepare with your kids. You can ask them to do simple tasks such as beating the eggs or carefully rolling the egg rolls. Feel free to be creative when it comes to the filling. It is best to use a rectangular or square frying pan if it is available. Otherwise, a large round frying pan will do.

 

Serves 4

Ingredients:

4 egg yolks

2 eggs

4 garlic cloves, crushed

2 teaspoons vegetable oil

100g shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced

2 green shallots, ends trimmed and sliced thinly

2 tablespoons sweet soy sauce

 

Place the egg yolks, eggs and garlic in a medium sized bowl. Whisk well and transfer it to a large jug.

Next, heat the oil in a 24cm base non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Stir-fry the mushrooms for two to three minutes or until it becomes tender. Transfer it to a bowl and cover it to keep it warm.

After, put non-stick baking paper over a chopping board and then reheat the frying pan over medium flame. Pour in the beaten egg mixture and cook it for three to four minutes or until it is set. Carefully slide the omelet on the lined chopping board. Make sure that the egg’s cooked side is facing down.

Put the mushrooms on one edge of the omelet and sprinkle it with half of the shallots. Roll it tightly and enclose the filling. Leave the ends open. Slice the egg roll into half inch pieces. Place the shiitake mushroom and egg rolls in individual plates. Garnish them with the remaining shallots. Serve immediately with the sweet soy sauce.
