The menu generally claims that litchi meat is made from lean pork hind legs, but experienced chefs usually reserve a little, preferring lean meat and fat meat-we will talk about this later. Then, use "knife method" to draw "(diagonal parallel lines cross diamond), cross the knife and cut into oblique blocks. This is the time to teach the knife method-the depth and width of the spit must be even and appropriate, and the meat will shrink slightly after frying, and the knife surface is like the rough fruit coat of litchi. However, if there is proper fat in pork, the finished product will be crystal clear and taste better. There is a little disagreement about how to deal with it after putting the flower knife in the oil pan. Juchunyuan, a time-honored Fujian cuisine, claims that they use red distiller's grains, but most restaurants now use thin powder (it is said that it is very suitable to photograph it), so that the powder is smooth and does not steal the limelight (sorry, it is hard for me not to think of my daily activities in front of the mirror). It is difficult to describe the temperature and process of entering the oil pan, so I skipped it lazily. This sauce is made of tomato sauce, sugar, soy sauce, onion and so on. Seasoning is very important. If the sweetness and sourness are slightly inaccurate, it will ruin the pot. It is said that vinegar should be used with caution to avoid being too sour. The tomato sauce is dark red after blending, echoing litchi at a distance. In the menu of Juchun Garden at the beginning of the year, in addition to exquisite dishes, water chestnut was also used as a side dish, which made me a little sigh. It is said that litchi meat is served with water chestnut in summer and potato in winter, but few restaurants are so particular about it now. The color and quality of horseshoes are undoubtedly more in line with the name of "litchi meat". The potato wrapped in glutinous rice is ambiguous and warm, but it is a homely atmosphere. By the way, I don't recommend eating litchi meat in a famous shop like Juchunyuan. It's a meticulous dish. Shopkeepers bully customers (potatoes are also used as side dishes, and the so-called recipes are just talk), but it is better to "make a mistake and beg for a wild life".
