This dish uses three types of small plates to separate and display the ingredients. Due to the differences in the shapes of the plates, the presentation creates a sense of visual contrast that is both intriguing and harmonious. The round plate is relatively small, so the turnip cake is cut into long strips to enhance the difference in shapes. When plating, it's important to keep the portions small to evoke a refined, elegant dining experience.
Ingredients: XO sauce, white radish, rice batter, cornstarch, etc.
Instructions: First, clean and peel the white radish, then grate it into fine shreds. Mix the cornstarch with the rice batter and set aside. Stir-fry the shredded radish briefly, then add water and bring it to a boil. Pour in the rice batter and cornstarch mixture, stirring continuously until it thickens. Pour the mixture into a mold and steam for about 40 minutes to make the turnip cake. Once done, remove and cut the turnip cake into long strips, then pan-fry it with XO sauce. Other ingredients like chives, celery, bean sprouts, and shredded eggs can be added according to personal preference.
