I've never thought about grinding chicken but seems like a good idea. That got me to thinking about Chinese pork hash for some reason. That's what my wife calls it. Not sure if it is called something different. Very simple recipe
Steamed pork hash
Ground pork
fresh crushed garlic
chopped water chestnuts
combine the above, make meat balls around the size of a golfball
steam till done.
serve them hot and with some shoyu and chopped green onion
Another of my wife's favorites, mine too. She calls it Chinese fish. We usually use a whole, cleaned red snapper
I'm not sure I remember the recipe exactly but it's something like this
steam a fish
heat some oil till just under smoking hot
chop garlic, shredded ginger and chopped green onion to your liking. at least enough to cover the fish. I love both garlic and ginger.and use quite a lot.
Once the fish is cooked remove from steamer and sizzle the hot oil over the fish. add the garlic, green onion and ginger plus a little more hot oil. lightly pour on your favorite sesame oil. Eat immediately.
okay one more
beef unchoy, or onchoy. We can't get unchoy in the mainland very easily. I asked a grocer why and he said something about it being banned because it is considered a hostile weed or something like that. Our loss, truly. But in Hawaii it is readily available. Big leafy veggie, the stems are hollow.. It is fantastic roughage and full of vitamins.
Sliced beef sauteed with some garlic and onions. Throw in the chopped unchoy steam till done to your liking. Add oyster sauce, not much. mix it all up and serve immediately with steamed rice.
Guess I'm hungry
BTW. Daniel Leader was a successful NYC chef who fell in love with bread. Quit his job, traveled to Europe to learn the bread making art. Came back to NY and eventually opened his own bakery. If you have any interest in creating the best bread ever read his book "Bread Alone" probably the best bread book on the market. Ever! It is not just recipes and procedures, it is a story and history of bread..Quite amazing.
