Grandson had asked to show him how to cook Hor Fun (Rice noodles). Fresh noodles that are tightly vacuum sealed are terrible to work with, especially for a beginner. So I soaked a package of dried ones and we cooked them up along with beef and gai lan. He took the tray home to share with his Dad and family. I took videos so he can remember!
I have a friend who supplies me with rhubarb from spring to whenever I've gotten enough. She and her husband were regulars at my former restaurant. Val loves #111, Sesame Chicken. Dan loves #108, Curry Chicken. So it was pay back time today!
Strips of chicken breast were coated with a mixture of egg and what we used as batter base for our batter shrimp( flour, cornstarch, and baking powder), then coated with ground up soda crackers (cracker meal). The strips were deep fried then tossed into a sesame oil flavoured sweet, tangy, and spicy sauce.
I'd used up all the gai lan for grandson's hot fun, so I cleaned out the veg bin and made chop suey for our supper.
