Sposób przygotowania

Krok po kroku

  1. 1

    If using pre-packaged nian gao, separate the slices and soak them in warm water for 10-15 minutes to soften; drain well.

    Około 15 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Soaking helps prevent the rice cakes from sticking together and makes them easier to stir-fry.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, combine the pork loin with the marinade ingredients: soy sauce, cornstarch, and sesame oil. Mix well and set aside for at least 10 minutes.

    Około 10 min

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients: dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, chicken broth, and white pepper. Set aside.

    Około 2 min

  4. 4

    Heat vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.

    Około 1 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Ensure your wok is hot before adding ingredients for a good stir-fry.

  5. 5

    Add the marinated pork to the hot wok and stir-fry until it is cooked through and lightly browned, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the pork from the wok and set aside.

    Około 3 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: Do not overcrowd the wok; cook in batches if necessary.

  6. 6

    Add the garlic and yellow onion to the wok and stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant.

    Około 1 min

  7. 7

    Add the napa cabbage and carrot to the wok. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

    Około 3 min

  8. 8

    Add the softened nian gao to the wok with the vegetables. Pour in the prepared sauce.

  9. 9

    Stir-fry everything together for 3-5 minutes, ensuring the rice cakes are evenly coated with the sauce and have absorbed some of the liquid. They should be tender and chewy.

    Około 5 min

    Wskazówka kucharza: If the rice cakes are too sticky, add a splash more chicken broth.

  10. 10

    Return the cooked pork to the wok and toss to combine and heat through for about 1 minute.

    Około 1 min

  11. 11

    Garnish with chopped scallion and serve immediately.
