Making the seasoning: 1 parsnip, 1 gram of salt, 5 grams of sugar
--Making the method and steps-
Step 1: First, remove the outer skin of the pumpkin, cut the pumpkin in half, use a knife to remove the inside of the pumpkin flesh, and then cut into thick slices with a thickness of 1 centimeter and a length of 4-5 centimeters, you can also cut into strips of about 1 centimeter and a length of 4-5 centimeters.
Step 2: Add water to the pot and boil, put the pumpkin slices into the boiling water, then add a spoonful of salt to blanch for about 30 seconds, don't blanch for a long time, the pumpkin is too soft behind the operation is easy to break.
Step 3: Put the blanched pumpkin strips into the prepared cool water, through the cold water, and then drain, put aside.
Step 4: Put the salted duck egg yolks in a bowl and use a spoon to press the yolks into powder, try to press it as fine as possible, not too big particles.
Step 5: After drying the water, put the slices of pumpkin into the dish, add the appropriate amount of dry starch, gently stir, so that the pumpkin is evenly coated with starch, do not be too hard to be careful of the pumpkin slices break. The purpose of the cornstarch is to make the surface of the pumpkin strips hard and crispy after deep-frying, because the pumpkin has a large water content, and if you don't put the cornstarch directly into the frying pan to deep-fry, the pumpkin strips will be very soft and unshapely.
Step 6: Add oil to the pot and heat to 7 adults into the pumpkin strips, do not stir at this time, wait for 20 seconds after the frying, frying stereotypes and then stir, separated from the part of the adhesion. When the surface is firm and golden brown in color, drain the oil and set aside on a plate.
Step 7: Heat a small amount of oil in a pan, add the duck egg yolks, stir fry until delicate with some small bubbles, then add 1 tablespoon of sugar, and if the yolks are not very salty, add a little salt to adjust the salty flavor.
Step 8: Stir-fry the duck egg yolks, then add the pumpkin strips, and quickly turn them over a few times so that they are evenly coated with the duck egg yolks. The important thing to note here is not to turn too hard or turn very often, just turn the spoon directly, and if you can't turn the spoon, try to turn gently, because the pumpkin strips will become soft and squishy when they are hot, so they will be easy to break.
Step 9: Then turn off the heat and remove from the pot to plate, if you want to plate, it is best to wait for the pumpkin bars to cool a little bit in the plate, because the pumpkin bars will harden when it cools down, and the surface will become crispy. This time with chopsticks, pumpkin strips will not be broken, and then sprinkled with chopped green onion garnish, so the salted egg yolk baked pumpkin is ready.
