This Hakka meal
consists of a bun made with red yeast coupled with the classic Hakka salted
pork, making it a different kind of Chinese-style hamburger. This meal also uses
locally grown pumpkins to make a Chinese dim sum. It looks delightful and is
sweet, but not greasy. Lastly, the plum juice sour cocktail is a refreshing
drink, giving this meal a perfect ending. These three different flavors give
taste buds a rich experience.
Ingredients:
Flour: 300g
Salted pork: 1 strip
Garlic: 1 clove
Chili pepper: 1
Glutinous rice flour: 1 cup
Pumpkin: 1
Red bean paste: 100g
Perilla plum: 1 can
Tomato: 2

Red yeast: 3 spoons

Fructose: 30 ml

Cooking method:
1. Salted pork bun:
Add yeast, baking powder and water to the flour to form a dough. After using an
electric cooker to accelerate the fermentation, use a bowl to cover the dough
to form it into a round shape. Then stretch it to make it into two even-sized
half buns, steam for 10 to 15 minutes and stuff the sliced salted pork, chopped
garlic and chilli pepper flakes into the middle of the bun.
2. Perilla pumpkin
cake: Mix the glutinous rice flour with the steamed pumpkin puree (add sugar to
increase sweetness) and make it into a dough. Remove the seeds from the perilla
plum, smear red bean paste on the outside and then wrap it with pumpkin dough.
Place the mixture in a porcelain soup spoon and then use a knife to press the
top. Garnish with raisins, steam for 10 to 15 minutes, and finally decorate
with perilla leaves.
3. Plum juice sour cocktail drink: Put tomato, fructose, plum powder and ice cubes into a juice machine and blend the ingredients. Then use a piece of green roll lettuce to decorate the drink.
