Grace mentions that this is a recipe to be served for Chinese New Year, birthdays, and graduations; for lettuce symbolizes prosperity, and translates to "growing money". Maybe I'll have good fortune, for I also recently made Grace's recipe Minced Pork in Lettuce Cups - which by the way is so, so good.
Mise en place.
Bowl 1: Garlic, serrano pepper
Bowl 2: Romaine
Bowl 3: Salt, white pepper
Bowl 4: Dry sherry, chicken broth, soy sauce
The tomatoes were my addition, for I felt it needed a splash of color. This dish also looks pretty just sprinkled with some sesame seeds, as other members of the group had done.
With just a few simple ingredients, you have a quick and tasty side dish.
Here are the Minced Pork in Lettuce Cups - you really need to make these...
We have been asked not to post
the recipes here on our blog. If you would like the recipe, you will
find it on page 195 (p.99 for the lettuce cups), of Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge, which you
can purchase at your local bookstore or find it at your local library. I
highly recommend purchasing the book - you won't be disappointed.
Guess we didn't win the Power Ball. =) Love your kitchen god and gorgeous set up. You definitely rocked this dish!
ReplyDeleteI think this sounds quite refreshing - and I like your addition of tomatoes for color. Red pepper might be nice, too!
