Hi Veronica, my neighbour cooks this dish very often but without the kei chi. Must share with her your way. BTW, I don't have to cook this dish cos' she prepares extra for me, very lucky.
ReplyDeleteVeronica, I used to cook something like this too and I love it so much. Next time I must try yours by adding dang gui and dates.
ReplyDeleteKimmy, I envy you having a good and helpful neighbour.
ReplyDeletePhong Hong, thank you for reading my blog. I have another quite similar recipe. "steamed chicken with金针,大头菜 and black fungus" which is my mother in-law's signature dish. I must cook this dish before I forget.
