Crispy Lamb With Cumin, Scallions and Red Chilies

1 tablespoon egg white

1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry

2 teaspoons cornstarch

1 teaspoon salt, more to taste

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 pound boneless leg of lamb or lamb shoulder, cut into strips about 1/2 inch by 2 inches

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 tablespoons cumin seeds, lightly cracked in a mortar or grinder

2 tablespoons whole dried red chili peppers, about 2 inches long

4 scallions, white and green parts only, cut on diagonal into 1-inch lengths

Sesame oil, for seasoning.

1. In a bowl combine egg white, wine, cornstarch, salt and pepper. Add lamb and set aside to marinate 1 hour.

2. Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat until a drop of water sizzles on contact. Swirl half the oil into wok and carefully add lamb, spreading it in a single layer. Let sear a moment, then stir-fry briskly just until lamb is no longer pink. Transfer to a plate. (If your wok is not large enough to hold all the lamb, do this in 2 batches, using extra oil.)

3. Swirl remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil into empty wok, add cumin seeds and chilies and stir-fry a few seconds until cumin seeds start to pop. Press chilies against sides of wok to char their skins.

4. Add scallions and stir-fry 1 minute. Then return lamb to wok and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes more until lamb is cooked through. Turn off heat, sprinkle with salt and drops of sesame oil, and serve immediately.

Yield: 4 servings.

糯米糍

http://web.wenxuecity.com/BBSView.php?SubID=cooking_best&MsgID=7180

材料:

糯米粉150克-----相当于1又1/4杯(标准CUP)

水(可用其他口味液体如牛奶,果汁等代替)150ML-----相当于2/3杯(标准CUP)

色拉油(我用一般植物油或橄榄油都可以)1匙(TABLESPOON)

白糖2匙-----用果汁要考量果汁本身的甜度,也要视馅儿的甜度加减

做法:

超简单.所有材料通通混起来拌匀.将一个稍微有一点点深度的盘子里抹上有防沾(其实还是沾得厉害,比不抹好点而已)或者用保鲜膜铺好(有说法是保鲜膜直接接触食物不好,大家自己看着办吧.)把材料混合物到进盘子里,上笼屉蒸熟.这个分量大概上气后8分钟.等稍微凉一些,双手抹点点油,分6份包好糯米糍,在熟糯米粉/细椰丝/芝麻/熟花生粉等等.放到室温就可以了.冰箱保存的话会发硬,要微波30秒才能回软.

饺子面:用KingArthur Unbleached非常好

面:水 大约 3:1 (要是还有干面没和起来,再稍稍加一点点水)

我一般是每3cup面和一块面。1cup温水(不要烫手就成),水里加一点点盐。不要太硬。把面都和起来就成了。盖上块湿布。等20分钟后把它揉一揉。继续醒1个多小时(所以要先和面在准备馅)。

面醒的很好后很好用。不用再揉了。饺子皮最好擀成椭圆形的,这样才能包大馅儿,饺子站得比较高。

用KingArthur Unbleached的面,皮可以擀很薄也不会破。其它牌子的面就很难说。正经的高筋面粉很不容易擀。。。

韩国粉丝拌菜

1. 韩国粉丝,不用泡水,直接烧一锅开水,水开后粉丝放下去煮,稍微搅拌让它不粘
锅,然后由着它去煮10分钟。捞出来冷水冲,沥干水待用。

2. 木耳、香菇泡水发起来,胡萝卜切丝,青椒切丝,还有洗净的小蘑菇,然后分别炒
熟(同事说主要是不要让蔬菜们相互染了颜色,主要是胡萝卜),当然炒这些蔬菜的过
程中药放盐调味。

3. 干净的锅,开中小火,放一点油(我用橄榄油,貌似健康一点),把沥水的粉丝放
进去,再放点麻油(个人喜欢了,提香,有不喜欢麻油的同学可以一开始多放点油就行
了),搅拌,放棕糖、酱油(生抽,老抽的话颜色太重),搅拌,放刚才炒好的菜,搅
拌,放roast sesame seed、香菜搅拌。(依据个人口味还可以放一点黑胡椒粉)整个
从粉丝进锅,搅拌,到出锅的时间大概是10分钟。就可以吃了,好吃!!

BTW,我以前没有用棕糖,粉丝颜色就很不好看,放在开中小火的锅里搅可以使粉丝水分收
干一点,口感好。炒蔬菜的时候我懒,除了胡萝卜,其他我都一起炒的,也可以放其他
自己喜欢的蔬菜,但不能用豆芽这样容易出水的,我试过,很失败。食肉动物还可以放
肉丝,韩国同事推荐要用牛肉,我用过猪里脊和海鲜,都不错。

add spinach for green color, add 蛋饼丝 for yellow color

韩国泡菜

先把白菜洗净沥水,用盐腌5小时,大概4个TB的的盐吧,这个自己掌握。

关键在这,一颗白菜的调料是:
1个TB的香油(芝麻油),
2个TB的糖
3个TB的粗辣椒份
4个TB的细辣椒粉(怕辣的可少放点,3个TB就行了)
少许HONDASHI,是一种日本味之素,我用它代替味精或鸡精。

不要忘了葱姜蒜哈

一起调好,是这样的。和腌过的白菜伴在一起

绝巧是把瓶子倒放一晚上,不需要放冰箱

第二天早上就放进FRIDGE
