January 23, 2017
You know Chinese New Year is around the corner when all the dried goodies like sea cucumber, fish maw, abalone, dried scallops, etc are prominently displayed for sale. These are celebratory delicacies that is a must during the 15 days of Chinese New Year.
Our recipe is easy to whip up and served with a bowl of steaming hot white rice…yummms!! The springy gelatinous sea cucumber pairs well with dried fish maw and pork tendon. We used Knife’s Groundnut Oil for it’s aroma in this dish. The sponge textured fish maw and pork tendon soaks up the delicious abalone enriched gravy.
