Having the boost in umami from the dried prawns and scallops, elevated sweetness from the sea. we don't add pork to this as traditionally done as we really wanted the flavours of the sea to really shine through with a hint of heat to balance out the sweetness.
One of the easiest meals but stunning flavour, and utterly satisfying is this. simply steamed rice, and a crispy edged fried egg, all topped with a sweet, savoury, and utterly delicious first draw soy sauce. simply delicious.
After coming home, and making a simple hand shredded chicken lao mein, great one it's own, even better with a heaped teaspoon of the ginger spring onion oil.
