{CNY Special} Prosperous Abalone dish with Mushrooms 鲍螺万象迎新年


It's the 7th day of Chinese New Year, which also coincide with the Valentine's Day. We had a simple family gathering where my siblings and dad came over for a family luncheon. It's potluck style and as the hostess, I decided to make an auspicious dish to celebrate the Lunar new year.   

Managed to cook this dish in under 30 minutes and it's emptied almost immediately when we started dining. 

The topshell was arranged into a rose shape, it was spontaneous but I though their appearance was rather beautiful. *smile* My late mom would approved this if she's around.


The platter of food.. Recipe for the sesame chicken cubes (the center piece) will be shared separately.

Note: I did not serve the abalone nor top shells to my little ones (I prefer serving them unprocessed food), however they enjoyed the broccoli and other dishes to the max.

 
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes 

Ingredients:
• 1 can of abalone in brine 高汤炖鲍鱼一罐*
• 1 can of sliced topshell 鲍鱼汁螺片一罐*
• 300gm of broccoli, cut into florets 西兰花一颗约三百克
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed 蒜头三颗,切细
• 8 King Eryngii Mushroom, roughly shredded 杏鲍菇八颗,捌段
• 100g Enoki mushroom, washed, 金针菇一百克,洗净


*Note: I used the Soon Thye Hang (顺泰行海味) canned abalone and topshell, you can choose other brand or flavor too but their brine sauce is my favorite.


The Making 做法:


1. Blanch the broccoli florets with hot water, drain the excess water and place aside. 用热水把西兰花烫熟,让多余的水流掉,西兰花放一旁待用。

2. Heat up 2 tablespoon of cooking oil in the wok, toss in the garlic and sautée for a minute till turns golden color. 在热锅烧热两汤匙油,加入蒜头炒至金黄色。

3. Add the mushrooms and broccoli, quick fry on high heat for about 2 minutes, add a tablespoon of the abalone sauce to flavor. Scope out and put into the serving dish. 

* you may add some sliced ham too for richer flavor

把杏鲍菇,金针菇加入锅中混入两汤匙的红烧鲍鱼菇汁快炒,再加入烫熟的西兰花大火炒约两分钟即可离锅,放在一个空碟上。

* 也可加入切片火腿添味

4. In the same wok, heat up the abalone with sauce, once the sauce starts to boil (should be around a min) turn off the heat. Arrange the abalone nicely over the broccoli and pour the sauce all over them. Repeat the same for the topshell but only add few spoonful of sauce over the topshell will do. 把罐头鲍鱼连汁倒入锅中,滚后即可熄火(约一分钟左右)把鲍鱼排在西兰花上方,然后把剩余的汁倒入碟中。罐头螺片也如法炮制,但只需要加几汤匙的螺汁在螺片上,不用太多。

That's it, your CNY dish is ready to serve. it's really just that simple! *wink* 

一道”鲍螺万象”轻轻松松上桌啦,趁热吃吧!


祝各位,新年快乐,心想事成!
