For the toppings

About the ingredients

We used brown rice for this recipe, but you can use whichever you prefer. Just make sure to adjust the cooking times for the grains to become al dente.

We get the lion’s name mushrooms and burdock strips from Asian vegetarian shops. If you can’t find them, just replace it with other favorite toppings.

For the seasoning

About the sauces

All the seasoning can be found in Asian supermarkets. If you can’t find any vegetarian oyster sauce, you can opt for a substitute.

How to make this recipe

Wash the grains, then put them in the rice cooker with hot water, 1/2 tsp salt and 1 1/2 tsp vegetable stock powder. Set it to the ‘brown rice’ setting and cook until the water has dried up.

Meanwhile, cut the burdock strips and each mushroom into bite-sized pieces. Set aside for later.

Wash the greens 3 times in lightly salted cold water, then let them drip dry in a colander. Separate the stems and leaves and cut them into 3cm (1.2″) segments to leave aside.

Pour 1/2 cup oil in the pan on medium heat and add the ginger in to cook for 30 seconds or until fragrant.

Pour in the sliced mushrooms and burdock. Cook on high heat for 3 minutes or until just brown.

Season the ingredients with the vegetarian oyster sauce, light soy sauce, honey, pepper, 1/2 tsp vegetable stock powder and 1/2 tsp salt.

Pour the cooked ingredients into the rice cooker and close the lid as you work on the vegetables.

Add the remaining oil into the wok and keep the heat on high. Cook the stems for 2 minutes or until just beginning to soften.

Toss in the leaves along with the remaining salt and chicken bouillon powder, then stir for 3 minutes or until cooked.

Lay the greens over the mushrooms.

Stir the contents in the rice cooker and let it cook for another 10 minutes with the lid on, then serve immediately as is!

Recipe FAQs

Can I make this without a rice cooker? Yes, you can! Just follow Nagi’s recipe from RecipeTin Eats on how to cook brown rice, then prepare all the other ingredients in a pan. Put them all into a large pot and stir until well combined, then let it cook for another 5-10 minutes until the flavors have infused. Can I make it in an instant pot? Definitely! I would suggest using a little more water to stop it from burning. Let it cook for about 10 minutes with another 10 as natural release time. Fluff until the grains are separated, then add the toppings over it and mix well.

Tips for the best results

Roast the grains. Before cooking, give the grains a light toast over the pan to infuse a smoky aroma that will carry through in the dish.Marinate the toppings for at least 20 minutes. Besides the Chinese broccoli, the other toppings can develop extra flavor if they’re marinated in the seasoning. We do this with our Vietnamese Beef Salad (Bò Xào Xà Lách Xoong), Bò Lúc Lắc (Shaking Beef) and Gà Xào Sả Ớt (Spicy Lemongrass Chicken) for maximum taste.Use the dehydrated mushroom variety. If you can get your hands on it, the dehydrated versions will give off the deepest flavors after being rehydrated.Our favorite vegetarian dishes!

XO Sauce (XO 酱)

XO Sauce may just be the most luxurious sauce in the world because it uses PREMIUM ingredients! Our homemade version does take some time to make, but your dedication will be rewarded with a satisfyingly golden, crispy and umami-packed condiment that lasts for months. It’s the perfect family weekend project and comes out superior to any store bought ones!

A lavish condiment to elevate every meal

Whenever I go to a restaurant and they offer XO Sauce, I count my lucky stars. Knowing how long it takes to make AND what premium ingredients go in it, it’s always a blessing when we get it served alongside our favorites like lobster, steamed fish or chicken.

Of course, with the price tag on this luxury item, it’s often given sparingly, and I’m always the slightest bit hesitant to ask for seconds. Just the slightest.

That’s why I love making it at home. There’s no limit to how much you can have (or how much of the goodies you can add)!

Unlike our other homemade sauces, this one takes a bit of time. But trust me when I say that every second is worth it.

Once all the ingredients are simmered down, you’ll have a flavor bomb packed with umami. Smother it over anything for an addictive spicy kick with rich seafood undertones.

And if you can’t finish it all, seal it well and have a condiment ready to go for months!

Why is it so expensive?

The story’s told of a Kowloon chef who created the sauce and gave it the name of the most prestigious beverage of that time. To many, ‘XO’ has ties with the luxury cognac, which in turn symbolizes wealth and class.

Beyond the story, Chinese cuisine considers many ingredients delicacies, including fish maw, abalone, sea cucumber and oysters. Scallops and shrimp – the main ingredients in this condiment – also fall under this category.

They’re prized for their potential health benefits and accessibility, making them the prime elements to Lunar New Year celebration banquets and a fantastic edible gift!

What is an XO Sauce substitute?

When Mum makes her meat-free meals, she will sometimes add extra flavor by having some vegetarian XO Sauce in a dish on the side. You’ll find a few brands that make it when you go to Asian supermarkets and they’re often made using soybeans, chili and spices.

It’s a must-have for her Phở Chay (Vegetarian Phở) and topped over a hearty Rice Cooker Rice with Mushrooms and Chinese Broccoli, but also acts as a great vegetarian substitute for the luxury condiment.

Of course, the real deal is where the deepest umami is, so try make a large batch to store at home for whenever cravings strike!

Why this recipe works

Frying the scallop shreds keeps it crisp and adds incredible texture.Using smoked ham means you can still make a delicious condiment without having to source the traditional Jinhua ham from the Zhejiang province.This homemade XO Sauce is simmered down using reserved scallop water for unmatched umami.What you’ll need

For the simmering

About the ingredients

Traditionally, XO Sauce is made using cured Jinhua ham, which can be hard to find outside of China. As a substitute, you can used smoked (or double smoked) ham or prosciutto.

This recipe also uses rehydrated scallops and shrimp. You can get these at Chinese dried goods stores. There will be a variety of types and sizes and generally the bigger, the more expensive.

We opt for the medium to big scallops and shrimps for this recipe.

For the seasoning

About the sauces

This recipe uses a chili bean sauce (toban djan) for extra flavor, which we get in jars from Asian supermarkets.

We also reserve our scallop water to add extra flavor. To do this, rinse the dried scallops and shrimp in cool water, then replace the water with a fresh batch. Let it soak for 2 hours or overnight and set the liquid aside after draining.

How to make this recipe

Heat up the oil in a pan and add the shredded scallops in to fry for 5 minutes on medium heat or until golden and crispy. Pour the contents into a strainer and set aside for later.

Pour the oil back into the pot on medium heat and cook the garlic, chili and shallots for 3 minutes or until brown. Add the fried scallops, shrimp and smoked ham and stir, then season with the salt, sugar, chicken powder and chili bean sauce.

Pour 1 cup of the scallop water in to simmer for 1 hour over low-medium heat or until it has reduced to your preferred consistency. Add the Shaoxing rice wine and mix for 2 minutes.

Pro Tip: Stir every 5 minutes to avoid burning.

Transfer the XO Sauce into an air-tight jar and serve as is with your favorite savory dishes!

Recipe FAQs

How do I store it? If it’s sealed in a glass jar with a lid so that everything’s kept airtight, you can leave it refrigerated and it will last for 6 months. Make sure that the layer of oil covers all the ingredients to keep it fresh. Top it off with more oil if need be. Are there any other ingredients I can use as a substitute that aren’t so expensive? You can use less of the scallops and shrimp and add more of the aromatics. Otherwise, dried squid or fish from Asian supermarkets will work. They won’t have the provide the exact same flavor, but these ingredients will be cheaper alternatives.

Tips for the best results

Use the scallop and shrimp liquid. Reserve all the water used for soaking the scallops and shrimp, then add it to simmer in the XO Sauce for extra umami. Just keep in mind that the more liquid you use, the more time you’ll need to simmer.Shred the scallops by hand. It’s much easier to use a food processor to blitz it, but using your hands to pull each strand apart ensures you’ll have more texture after frying it.Simmer low and slow. This will help to bring out deeper flavors and let the ingredients infuse with each other.What to serve it with

XO Sauce works well with any savory banquet dish, from chicken to pork to beef and seafood. But our favorite ways to eat it are with noodles and rice to soak every drop up:

Nước Màu (Vietnamese Caramel Sauce)

Nước Màu is an ultra easy Vietnamese Caramel that uses just 2 ingredients! It’s the perfect way to deepen color and flavor in your favorite braises, stir fries and marinades. This super versatile sauce requires very little effort to make and will last in your pantry for months!

A deep glow for your favorite family side dishes

Grandma’s Nước Màu is a Vietnamese Caramel recipe you need in your life. It’s incredibly forgiving and for something so simple, you can REALLY amp up your cooking game.

Trust me when I say this: Once you make it, you’ll never want your pantry without it. That’s certainly the case in our family kitchen!

Perhaps it’s the way it adds a gorgeously rich caramel to deeply color your most treasured braised side dishes. Or how its gentle toffee undertones sweetens the meal in a way that sugar alone never will.

Now, don’t mistake this for a dessert topping – you definitely wouldn’t want it drizzled over your Sương Sáo (Grass Jelly), Chè Trôi Nước (Vietnamese Glutinous Rice Balls) or Kem Chuối (Vietnamese Banana and Coconut Ice Cream).

Rather, it’s best saved for those savory family side dishes that you have around the dinner table with a bowl of hot steaming rice and great company!

Why this recipe works

Using brown sugar slabs gives the Nước Màu a rich toffee undertone.Cooking it until it develops into a dark amber ensures you have the deepest flavors.With the high sugar content, it stores perfectly well for months at a time.What you’ll need

About the ingredients

We use brown sugar slabs because of its toffee flavor, but you can use any type you like. White, brown, raw or palm sugar will work well. Just keep in mind that the flavor will vary between each version as well as the cooking times.

The amount of water you add is up to you. Some families like their Nước Màu on the thicker side, so use less water. Others like it closer to the consistency of water, which means you’ll have to add more liquid.

How to make this recipe

Melt the sugar in a pot on low-medium heat for 15 minutes or until it becomes a caramel. Once it darkens to a deep brown, slowly pour the water in and stir quickly to combine.

Store it in an air-tight jar for future use!

Pro Tip: As soon as the water touches the caramel, it will start splattering, which is extremely hot and dangerous. Be careful as you add the liquid!

Recipe FAQs

Why is my caramel bitter? If you cook it for too long, the sugar breaks down and the flavor will change from sweet to bitter. This is commonly seen as burnt caramel. If it’s too close to black, you won’t be able to fix it.But if it has just started to darken beyond what you intended, you can try adding more water to bring the temperature back down. Why is the Nước Màu so thick? This comes down to the ratio of each ingredient. Add more water to dilute it or use less sugar the next time you make it.

Tips for the best results

Avoid stirring the sugar as it melts. Sugar tends to form crystals when it’s in contact with a dry area like the side of a pot. To prevent this, leave the melting be until it has darkened to an amber. If you find the sugar is crystallized on the sides of the pot, put a lid on it to let the steam run down and dissolve them.Use a wet brush to dab around the pot just above the cooking caramel. The water in the brush will drip the sugar down so it doesn’t stick to the sides of the pot.Put the pot into a cold water bath when you’re done. This will stop the cooking process so that the Nước Màu doesn’t continue to cook until it’s burnt.Recipes to use it in

Our family cooks using Grandma’s Nước Màu for so many dishes. Find our favorite ways to make use of it right here.

Braising

As a color enhancer and sweetener

In Vietnamese cuisine, the sauce the used for braises to get that gorgeous caramel glow. It adds a touch of rich sweetness that you won’t get from sugar alone. These are our family’s best ways to use the ingredient in side dishes eaten in Vietnam:

As a substitute for dark soy sauce

In our Chinese-Vietnamese household, Grandma does a lot of cooking with dark soy sauce. But when in a pinch and there’s none left, she’ll reach for her jar of homemade Nước Màu. Here are some dishes she will happily use it in:

Marinating

We love infusing our protein with oyster sauce (or any substitute), but sometimes you really want that pop of color and deep flavor undertone. To achieve this, the Vietnamese Wet Caramel is a fantastic ingredient to add:

Stir Frying

Much like marinating, you can use the sauce for your weeknight stir fries to subtly sweeten the overall dish with an amber caramel. These are some ways to bring color to your meals:

With so many ways to use Nước Màu, there’s every reason to try it out this week!

Chinese Sugar-Coated Fruit Sticks (糖葫蘆) » CookingFollowMe

Chinese Sugar coated fruit sticks are my favorite Chinese sweet in my childhood memory, and I would like to share them with you today.Sugar Coated Fruit SticksSugar Coated Fruit SticksStrawberry season is coming. In addition to dipping condensed milk or sugar, the traditional Chinese sugar-coated fruit sticks are also a very classic recipe to eat strawberries!Making the syrup of these sweet fruit sticks seems simple, but the failure rate is higher than expected when actually making them. This time I have sorted out 3 key points to pay attention to when cooking the sugar-coating so that you can easily grasp it, and you can make the sweet taste of memory just at home! These Sweet Fruit Sticks Are Not Candied FruitsThey are also called Tanghulu (糖葫蘆) in Chinese.It consists of fruits covered in hard candy on approximately 20-centimeter (7.9 in)-long bamboo skewers.Tanghulu are often mistaken for regular candied fruits; however, they are coated in a hardened sugar syrup. 3 tips for cooking syrupDo not use damp sugar.Do not use anything to stir the syrup during the cooking process. If you are worried about uneven heating, just shake the pot. Stirring the syrup at will can easily make the sugar recrystallize and reverse to sand, which will affect the taste and cause failure.Try to choose a thicker and heating evenly pot. The syrup on the side of the pot is about to change color and burn due to the difference in resonance speed, but the syrup on the inner layer is still clear and transparent.More Chinese Sweet RecipesCHINESE STEAMED MILK WITH EGG WHITESSICHUAN COLD JELLY (四川冰粉)CHINESE FRUIT SOUP Get the Latest Recipes Right in Your InboxIf you love my food pictures, you can go to my PINTEREST to find more beautiful and delicious recipe photos, click back to my website, hope you will like these fine food pictures.Sugar Coated Fruit SticksIngredients 18-20 fresh strawberries 200 g sugar 100 g waterInstructionsRemove the leaves of the strawberry and keep the stalk in the middle to keep the shape intact.(Don’t use a knife to remove the stalks directly. The cut surface will speed up the water from strawberry rate and affect the taste of the finished product.)After the strawberries are washed, use a kitchen napkin to absorb the moisture, and poke the bamboo sticks from the bottom of the strawberries for use. (You can skewer multiple strawberries on a bamboo stick, or only one. A single skewer of strawberries is easier to handle when dipped in syrup, and the shape of the icing will be smoother and more beautiful.)Pour water and sugar into the pot, turn the fire to low heat, and start timing. The cooking time for the syrup is about 12-16 minutes, depending on the pot and the firepower.When the sugar water boils for a while the bubbles start to thicken, turn down the heat.The bubbles start to become clear and transparent. When the color of the syrup turns yellow, you can take a little syrup, drop it into cold water and wait for a few seconds before taking it out. The cooled icing will taste crispy and not sticky to your teeth, then turn off the heat. If you are still not sure how much time to cook, you can also observe the color of the syrup, which is golden yellow.Put the strawberry in the syrup, quickly turn it around and coat it with icing, leave it at room temperature for about 5 minutes, let it solidify, and then taste. (The speed should be fast when dipping the syrup. The temperature of the syrup is very high, and the contact time is too long. It is easy for the strawberry to soften the water when heated, which will affect the taste.)Recipe NotesThe prepared sugar-coated fruit sticks must not be put in the refrigerator to keep the surface of the sugar-coated fruit sticks sticky due to moisture. In addition, the sugar coating should not be left for a long time after it has cooled. It should be eaten as soon as possible to maintain the best flavor.Sugar Coated Fruit SticksDo You Love these Chinese Sugar-Coated Fruit Sticks?Tell me do you like this dish?

Salted Egg Chicken Curry » CookingFollowMe

Unexpectedly, after merging salted egg with curry, this salted egg chicken curry combines a new flavor!Salted Egg Chicken CurrySalted Egg Chicken CurryFor those who are tired of ordinary curry come to try new ways to eat it! Curry and salted egg yolk are the same ingredients with a strong flavor and each has its own merits. The unique salty scent also instantly enhances the aroma of curry by several levels.What is curry made of?In its simplest form, curry is an Indian gravy or sauce that is used in tandem with meat, tofu, or vegetables. It’s served rice, most popularly Basmati rice, and contains many different kinds of spices. Depending on what your recipe calls for, you could have a mild curry or a curry that’s super spicy. How healthy is curry?Consuming curry powder may boost brain and digestive health, improve feelings of fullness, lower blood sugar levels, and provide antibacterial effects. However, more research in humans is needed to confirm these potential benefits.Is salted egg healthy?Phospholipids and cholesterol contents are lower in pidan oil and salted duck egg yolk oil. Thus, the pidan and salted duck eggs are nutritionally rich alternatives of duck egg products that will benefit human health during consumption.How long will salted egg last?3 weeks, usually the white part is very salty, but the yolk isn’t. The yolk will harden and can be held with your fingers. If you are happy with the result, carefully drain off some of the brine and take each egg out and place them in the fridge and use them as you need. I would say keep them for max of 3 weeks.
