The other day、I went to a local Chinese restaurant with my mom!🍥
I ate omurice and spring rolls and shumai〜!
The omurice、was my favourite thin omelette、so it was super delicious🥰
The spring rolls were crispy、the shumai were juicy and delicious♡
Recently、I've been watching lots of Day in the Life of a Chinese Restaurant videos、so being able to see our food being prepared in the kitchen、was super duper fun😚
Maybe I'll be able to use a huge wok like them someday、it was amazing。。。
Seeing them constantly cooking food for someone from early in the morning to late at night、gave me loads of motivation!
My family and I promised to go back soon and try some of the other items on their menu!🤗
I wanna go to a cat caféー🐈⬛
I'll end today's blog here (๑・̑◡・̑๑)
When we received the bill、we also received candies on a stick🍬
"Eggs" on top of fried rice, drizzled with vegan Japanese demi-glace and sprinkled with dry parsley 😋
One of the things I thought I'd say goodbye to when I decided to stop buying eggs. But fear not, chickpea flour mix and Just Egg came to the rescue :) The above is a mixture of 3 tbsp Just Egg and 2 tbsp chickpea flour mix, with 2 tbsp water. But tbh 6 tbsp Just Egg would be much fluffier and more like the real thing.
The other substitute was the demi-glace sauce. I found this recipe from mumokuteki and it is seriously. so. good.
Translation & adjustment that I used for one serving is as follows:
Tomato sauce 8 tsp
Red wine 4 tsp
Allspice 1/8 tsp
Soy sauce 2 tsp
Cooking wine 1 tsp
Sugar 2 tsp
Very small pinch of celery seeds (I just put in 1/8 tsp of ground ginger as a substitute)
Cocoa powder 1/4 tsp
Water 4 tsp
Reserve 1-2 tbsp of the sauce and pour the rest into the fried rice :)
