Ingredients

  • 2 packs Chinese-style noodles
  • 1/2 bunch Chinese chives
  • 1/3 Carrot
  • 2 leaves Chinese cabbage
  • 6 Quail eggs (boiled, canned is ok)
  • 100 grams Pork (belly prefereed)
  • 2 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 2 tsp Sake
  • 2 tsp Chicken soup stock granules
  • 2 tsp Sesame oil
  • 1 few drops Ra-yu

Method

  • Make the sauce first.
  • Combine the sauce ingredients.
  • These are the basic ingredients.
  • Cut the pork and chives into 4 cm long pieces.
  • Cut the carrot into 4 cm wide slices.
  • Chop the cabbage roughly.
  • The carrot cooks the slowest, so dip in water, wrap in plastic wrap and microwave for a minute or so before proceeding.
  • Boil the quail eggs and peel them.
  • If you're using precooked ones (canned or vacuum packed) use as-is.
  • I used precooked ones this time.
  • Stack everything in the frying pan in this order: Carrot, cabbage, noodles, pork, quail eggs, then finally the chives.
  • When everything's in the pan, it looks like this.
  • Add the sauce from Step 1 in the pan.
  • Put a lid on and steam-cook over medium heat for about 12 minutes.
  • Be sure not to let it burn.
  • Take the lid off.
  • If everything is cooked through, mix everything together while stir-frying lightly.
  • Done!
  • Transfer to a serving plate and enjoy.
  • I added some shiitake mushrooms this time too.
  • You can use any kind of vegetables and proteins you like.
  • Onion, bean sprouts, shrimp, squid...there are endless variations.
  • Personally, I always like to include Chinese cabbage and Chinese chives.
