Hawthorn meat slices
Ingredients: 200g pork belly, auxiliary ingredients: hawthorn 100g, starch 15g, flour 15g, salt 1g, oil 50g, sugar 60g, egg white 80g, 30g water chestnuts
Steps
1. First boil a portion of hawthorn water with water. Cook for about half an hour until the soup becomes thicker. Cook more and add rock sugar as a drink. If you don’t have fresh hawthorn, you can also use air-dried hawthorn slices.
2. You can make meat balls while boiling water. Cut the meat into slices, approximately like this. The thickness is about 4-5 mm.
3. Use the egg whites of 2 eggs + 1 tablespoon of flour + 1 tablespoon of starch, stir into batter, put the meat slices into the batter and coat evenly.
4. Heat the oil pan to 60% heat, add the meat slices, and fry over medium heat to form meat balls (due to the expansion of the batter). Fry until golden brown and set aside.
5. The meat balls are fried and the hawthorn water is almost ready. Add a large frying spoon of hawthorn soup and 2 tablespoons of sugar to a clean wok, and boil the sugar water over medium-low heat.
6. Stir the sugar water juice continuously until the sugar water cheongsam is formed. At this point, you need to pay special attention. You must put the meat balls in immediately, stir-fry quickly to make the meat balls evenly coated with sugar sauce, and then serve. If you have water chestnuts, you can add the cut water chestnuts and human meat balls into the pot and stir-fry evenly.
Tip: Make your own hawthorn water with ‘0’ added, which is healthy.
