Dragon vegetables to celebrate the New Year
The Chinese New Year is fish and meat, and you must add some vegetarian dishes to not be so greasy.
There is a classic vegetarian stir-fry that is very suitable for eating during the Chinese New Year. This dish is called Lotus Pond Moonlight, its taste is crisp and refreshing, the color matching alone makes people appetizing, and the nutrition in the combination of ingredients is also relatively balanced.
The moonlight on the lotus pond is poetic and picturesque when you listen to the name. The materials to be used are also colorful. Snow-white lotus root slices, turquoise snow peas, black fungus, and red carrots, as well as fresh water chestnut meat, water chestnut and fresh lilies, make the taste even better.
The name of the lotus pond moonlight sounds amazing, but it is actually very simple. Whether it's slicing, shredding, or stripping, you can look at it as beautifully. Boil water in a pot and put some salt, blanch one by one until it is broken, put the lotus root slices first, and then remove the water to control the dryness.
Then, put chopped green onions and minced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, pour oil, pour in the blanched vegetables, stir-fry, add salt to taste and get out of the pot.
The ingredients of this dish can be mixed and matched at will. Take water chestnut, lotus seeds and lotus root slices to fry together, it is called "lotus pond three treasures" or "lotus pond three fresh".
The most is the autumn and August in the south of the Yangtze River, and the chicken head rice sai mussel beads are round". Chicken head rice is the gourd. It is only because the shell of the gourd is covered with thorns, a bit like a chicken head with wet feathers, and it is called "chicken head rice" because you have to peel it open to see the rice-like seeds.
If you use fresh chicken head rice from the south of the Yangtze River, plus the "moonlight on the lotus pond" composed of water chestnut and lotus root, the chicken head rice is like freshly peeled pearls, and the taste is soft and glutinous, which is very attractive. It is used to make New Year's dishes, round and full, delicious and good-looking, with the meaning of reunion, which is wonderful.
Of course, there is no water chestnut and chicken head rice in this season, although it can be eaten in the opposite season now, but it is not eaten from time to time, and the plants that grow in this pond can be eaten are added to a few kinds, and then fried with shrimp, it can also be regarded as the moonlight of the lotus pond.
Although it can be mixed and matched at will, the strange thing is that there are few mushrooms added to the moonlight of the lotus pond, although the mushrooms are also fairies in the lotus pond. probably thinks that the mushrooms have a bitter taste, even if Shen Congwen praises it and says that "Ge is higher than potatoes", it can't be very pleasing to people.
Ci mushroom is a must-have food for Jiangmen people in the New Year. Pick a large, white one. Because of the "good intentions", it is necessary to put it in the fat cabbage and oyster soup, which symbolizes "good fortune" during the New Year. of mushrooms. This mushroom means that in the future, you must not go to the mouth when you make it.
The mushrooms from our Jiangmen Daao are not bitter when they are loose, and they taste a little sweet, but they are only fried with cured meat.
It is said that if you want the mushroom to be delicious, you can't cut it with a knife, just pat it with the back of the knife. In this way, the mushrooms will taste a little looser and not bitter. But no matter how you make mushrooms, I still don't think they're very tasty.
