This dish brings back childhood memories. This is a homey dish that my mum used to cook for us when we were small. It’s a very simple steamed pork recipe yet so appetizing and tasty when served with rice or porridge or even oat porridge.

Instructions
Mix minced pork with tung choy and seasoning ingredients and set aside for 15 minutes.
Wet a dish, shake off excess water to prevent steamed pork from sticking to it. Place seasoned meat on dish, spread out and level meat very gently with the back of a wet metal spoon. Try to make it about 1 cm thickness. Drizzle the garlic oil over the top of meat.
Steam in a wok over rapidly boiling water for about 15 minutes or until cooked through.
When done, garnish with the garlic crisps and serve immediately.
Rice Cooker Method: (This dish can also be steamed on top of rice in the rice cooker so no washing of cooking utensils is needed……. So easy and convenient!)
Mixed all the ingredients in a slightly deep plate that fits the steamer in a rice cooker.
When rice is going to be cooked , place plate on top of the steamer and let the steam of rice cook the meat for about 30 minutes.
