Ingredients
Eggs 5 piece
Minced pork 130 g
Wood ear mushrooms 20 g
Glass noodles 3 bundle
Shallots 5 piece
Chillies 1 piece
Implementation Steps
01
- Soak the wood ear mushrooms overnight to soften.
- Soak the glass noodles in cold water.
- Finely mince the shallots.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl.
02
- Once the mushrooms are soft, chop them finely.
- Cut the glass noodles into short pieces, as you would spring onions.
- Set aside 1 egg yolk separately.
03
- Put the minced pork, mushrooms, glass noodles, minced shallots and eggs in a large bowl.
- Season with 1 tablespoon of pepper, salt and sugar, 1/2 tablespoon of MSG, 3 tablespoons of fish sauce and 2 tablespoons of cooking oil and stir well.
04
- Brush oil around the inside of a mould. Pour in the mixture, cover tightly with cling film and steam for about 20 minutes.
05
- Beat the egg yolk you set aside.
- When the meatloaf is cooked, remove the cling film, pour over the egg yolk, sprinkle with a little minced chilli and steam for 10 more minutes without the lid so no steam drips onto the top.
06
- When it's done, take it out and slice it – it's ready to eat.
It's very quick and cheap to make, so make it often for the family.
