Steamed Pork in Lotus LeafPork
| Steamed Pork in Lotus Leaf |
|---|
Ingredients:
5 Tablespoons raw rice
1½ pounds pork butt, cut into three-inch chunks
2 Tablespoons black beans, mashed
2 squares red soy bean cheese
2 Tablespoons thin soy sauce
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 egg white, optional
3 large dried lotus leaves, soaked in warm water until soft, about five minutes, their thick center stems removed and discarded
Preparation:
1. In a dry wok or fry pan, roast the rice stirring
often, until brown and aromatic. Then crush it
with the handle of the cleaver.
2. Mix mashed black beans and red bean cheese
with the soy sauce and sugar, and spread this
mixture on all sides of each piece of pork.
3. Wrap each piece with a double-thick piece of
lotus leaf, and seal with water or egg white.
4. Put these wrapped packages seam-side down
in a steamer basket in a single layer. Steam them
over simmering water for three hours, adding
more water as needed. If not using immediately,
put them in the refrigerator. Twenty minutes
before needed, steam them for the rest of the
time, adding twenty minutes to it if needed; then
serve.
