Lunch Thursday 5 October - Stir Steam variation


This is a variation the stir steams I eat regularly. See the very first entry in this blog for the basic recipe (and numerous place elsewhere)

Stir Steam Variation
1 portion basic Chinese style sauce for stir steam
1 nest Chinese egg noodles (about 50g)
100g bean sprouts, blanched
60g baby corn
60g mange tout
60g buna shemiji mushrooms
100g king prawns
60g spring onions, sliced

Bring the basic Chinese style sauce to a simmer, add the mushrooms and cook until they are tender.

Meanwhile, boil the noodles together with the baby corn for 4 minutes. Split the corn into 4's
lengthwise.

Thicken with 1 tablespoons corn flour in a little bit of cold water. Add the mange tout and prawns to the Chinese style sauce and cook for 2 minutes.

Add the spring onions, cooked noodles and baby corn to toss well.
