Stir Fry Pork With Cauliflowers 


I like this dish very much. There are usually two kinds of cauliflower. One is the type having long stem, and the other’s stem is short. I prefer the first type. It tastes better. And it’s ideal to be stir fried.

1. Heat a little oil in the pan. Put in pork slices. Stir fry till a bit golden brown. Then take pork out.

2. Leave the oil in the pan. Heat it again. Add in a little chopped garlic and ginger. Stir fry a bit.

3. Add in cauliflower (torn into small parts already). Stir fry till the edge of cauliflower becomes a bit golden brown.

4. Put pork slices back in the pan. Stir fry with cauliflower evenly.

5. Add in chopped red chili and 1 tsp of light soy sauce. Stir fry evenly.

6. Because my cauliflower pieces were kind of big, so I added 2 tsp water, turned to medium heat. And covered the pan with lid for 2-3 mins. 

7. Remove the lid. Turn to high height. Sprinkle some salt and stir fry evenly.

Salted Butter Spread For Bread


My husband loves spreading salted butter on bread. Yet, today we only had unsalted butter in the fridge. So I made this spread by myself. It’s very easy to make.

Soften butter you need in a small bowl. Sprinkle some salt, a little mixed herbs and garlic powder. Then stir and blend them well.



It tastes great. My husband loves it more than salted butter. I saw his eyes light up when he had a bite of bread with this spread. 🙂

It’s a popular dish in my hometown. Someday my mother told me that she learnt a new dish from her friends. And that new dish is this braised cauliflower with tomato. Later, this dish also showed up in the canteen of my high school.

Stir fry a bit. Then pour in hot water reaches half height of the ingredients. Cover the pan with lid. Braise till cauliflower is done. Sprinkle salt and dish out.

Easy Crepes


Ingredients:

1 cup flour

1 1/2 cups milk

2 eggs

1 tsp vegetable oil (I used olive oil)

1/4 tsp salt

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk into smooth batter.

Heat a non-stick pan on stove with medium heat.

Add 1 big spoonful batter into pan. 

When the bottom turns a bit golden brown, it will be easily to flip over.


Heat the other side for a little while.

For the fillings, you can just spread hazelnut chocolate sauce. Then fold it and dust with icing sugar.


Or you can make cinnamon apple filling:

Melt 2 tsp butter in the pan. Add in 4 tsp brown sugar and 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon. Stir evenly. Add in some small apple pieces. Turn off the stove when apple pieces are coasted with sauce evenly.



You can also change apple to banana.

It tastes really nice.
