Ingredients
1 pound ground pork
8 dried shiitake mushrooms reconstituted
1/4 cup chopped onion
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
1 slice of ginger julienned
Directions
- Reconstitute the dried mushrooms by soaking them in hot water until soft. When mushrooms are soft, remove them from the water and cut off the stems. Dice the mushroom into small pieces (about 1cm in width).
- Put the ground pork in a bowl and add soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch and salt.
- Chop the onion into small pieces. Mix in the diced mushrooms and chopped onions into the pork mixture.
- Bring water to boil in a steamer. Cut ginger slice into matchsticks (aka julienned).
- Scoop the pork mixture into a deep plate (because pork will generate liquid as it steams) and spread the mixture around evenly and add ginger on top.
- Place the plate into the steamer. Steam on medium-high heat for about 30 mins. then serve.
