Fried chicken thighs with minced seasoned flour

This minced fried chicken with seasoned flour features tender and juicy chicken thighs coated in crispy tapioca flour and a warming touch of turmeric and pepper. After being fried until golden, the chicken pieces are tossed with a spicy minced spice mix—a mixture of red chilies, green chilies, garlic, and onions—which is sautéed with oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and spring onions until fragrant and thickened. The result is a combination of a savory-sweet crispy exterior and tender chicken meat with a delicious aroma of spices and a mild spicy flavor.

stir-fried beef with bitter melon

Stir-fried Beef with Bitter Melon presents a contrasting blend of savory and bitter flavors: gently seasoned beef blends with bitter melon, which, after being cooked, retains its distinctive hint of bitterness. The crunchy texture of the bitter melon and the tender slices of meat create harmony in every bite, while shallots, garlic, and ginger add a warm, appetizing aroma. This dish is considered healthy and quick to prepare, but requires extra attention to the process of pressing and sautéing the bitter melon to avoid an overly bitter taste and to prevent overcooking the meat.

steamed white cabbage rolls with minced meat

Steamed Chinese Cabbage Rolls with Minced Meat offer an enticing combination of textures: a layer of soft Chinese cabbage wraps around savory, spiced minced meat with a hint of ginger and garlic. A quick steaming session preserves the freshness of the vegetables while keeping the meat filling juicy. This dish is healthy and light, perfect as a daily side dish; however, it requires careful soaking of the cabbage to ensure the rolls don't fall apart easily, and precise steaming time to ensure the meat cooks thoroughly without drying out.
