糖醋排骨


糖醋排骨
(食譜來源: Kitty's網絡日誌)

嘗試用另一種方法煮糖醋排骨.. 今次的效果是排骨非常入味, 還有些變了豬軟骨似的..


材料: 1 湯匙紹興酒、2 湯匙生抽、3 湯匙白糖、4 湯匙鎮江醋、5 湯匙水、一字排骨(約600克)

做法:
1. 先把排骨切件,沖凈。
2. 把已拖水的排骨放入上述已煮滾的醬料中,再滾後,蓋好,慢火炆一小時左右。見汁收少至濃,排骨轉暗紅色,即成。上碟供食。
3. 最後加生粉水埋芡(如有須要)即可。

Tips from
香豬 :
無論用什麼容器,按上述比例將調味料混和煲滾,調味料要足夠浸過排骨。
要調味料滾才可以落排骨,利用熱力封實肉內的水份,咁樣煮出嚟嘅豬肉先 會多汁唔嚡口。
排骨蓋上煲蓋燜煮時,記得不時攪動及小心煲乾。
如果覺得顏色仲係太深,可以只用半湯匙老抽。

蕃芝三文煎魚扒


LG likes this as there are tomatoes & lots of corn!!



蕃芝三文煎魚扒
(食譜來源: 通之廚房)

材料: 三文魚扒1塊、中型洋蔥1個切粒、蒜蓉2湯匙、蕃茄1個切粒、急凍粟米半杯、車打芝士2片(Optional)
汁料: 茄汁3湯匙、糖適量、鹽適量、熱水1/3 杯、香草意粉醬1/2 杯

做法:
1. 魚件抹乾後用少去白胡椒粉, 海鹽醃10分鐘, 兩面再薄薄鋪上生粉
2. 快火落油(油要多點)起鑊, 先將魚扒兩面煎成金黃, 再中慢火將魚扒煎至8-9成熟, 盛起, 用紙抹去油份上碟
3. 快火落油起鑊, 用少許鹽爆香洋蔥至軟身, 再加入蕃茄炒香, 然後加入汁料煮透, 調好味, 熄火, 加芝士兜勻, 淋上魚件即成

Tips from 通少:
1. 魚扒一定要乾身, 否則就很難上粉, 煎也很難煎得靚
2. 魚扒不要反太多, 要耐心一點, 煎好一面先好反
3. 糖和鹽要隨自己口味加減, 好酸就減少點, 好甜就加多點
4. 魚扒不宜煎太熟, 因為餘熱會自然地令肉再熟一點但不會令肉身變老
5. 煎封兩面有助保持肉汁, 令魚扒肉質滑滑
6. 蕃茄會出水, 所以水不用落太多
7. 如不落芝士, 請用生粉埋獻

日式溏心蛋

日式溏心蛋
(食譜來源: yimtsimyan @ OpenRice)

忽然愛上吃雞蛋..

參考了這個食譜後,我的雪櫃內更經常會存有這款日式溏心蛋.. 真的很好味呀!



材料及份量: (2人份)
雞蛋 2隻
調味料: 日本豉油 1/4杯、味醂 1/4 杯、水 3/4杯

做法:
1. 雞蛋必須從雪櫃取出放至室溫,觸摸時完全沒有凍的感覺。
2. 用小鍋煮滾日本豉油、味醂及水,煮滾後轉至另一容器待涼。
3. 將雞蛋放入小鍋,加清水至完全浸著雞蛋,開火。(註:不要離開!)看到水滾了,讓雞蛋繼續煮3分鐘(註:必須計時!),然後立即將雞蛋取出放入冷水/冰水中降溫。(註:目的是不要讓雞蛋黃變成熟透,蛋冷卻了可以剝殼)
4. 將剝了殼的雞蛋放入已放涼了的步驟[2]的調味豉油中。 (汁液必需完全浸著雞蛋) 5. 放入雪櫃冷藏兩天後即可,但5天後吃才是最入味最好吃的,請耐心等待!
