Chinese food recipe >> Fish and Seafood>> Sea Cucumbers and Pigeon Eggs
INGREDIENTS
 
1 1/2 lb. (750g) fresh or reconstituted sea cucumbers
15 pigeon eggs
15 Chinese cabbage hearts
2 tsp. salt, or to taste
1 tsp. soy sauce
1/2 tsp. scallions, chopped
1/2 tsp. fresh ginger, chopped
7 oz (200ml) chicken stock
1 tbsp melted chicken fat
3 1/2 fl oz (100ml) vegetable oil for deep-frying
1 tsp. MSG (optional)
 
RECIPE
 
  1. Cut the sea cucumbers at the stomach, and gut. Leave whole. Hard-boil the pigeon eggs, let cool and shell. Halve the cabbage hearts lengthwise and chop into 2 1/2 inch (7cm) sections.
  2. Rub the sea cucumbers with 1 tsp. of the salt. Plunge into boiling water for 2 minutes, remove and drain. Blanch the cabbage hearts briefly in the salted boiling water, remove, drain and set aside.
  3. Put the sea cucumbers in a wok and add the soy sauce, the remaining 1 tsp. salt, the rice wine, sugar, scallions, ginger, chicken stock, and MSG(optional). Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the cornstarch-water mixture and cook, stirring, until thickened. Arrange the sea cucumbers and cabbage hearts alternately in a circle on a plate, and sprinkle with the melted chicken fat.
  4. Heat the oil in a wok until the oil surface ripples. Add the eggs and deep-fry until golden. Arrange the eggs around the sea cucumbers and serve.
