Seven Dinners, Just One Meat and One Vegetable – Friends Say It Looks Simple but Has Delicious Main Courses
For the past few days, my friends have been asking me, 'Why haven't you enjoyed a meal at our home?' This week, both of us have returned to work, bringing lunchboxes to work, and we haven't eaten lunch at home. Dinner is made when we get home, and every dinner is just a simple dish of one meat and one vegetable. I shared our seven dinners in the group and said, 'Having only two dishes for dinner makes it look a bit frugal, I don't even dare to post my dinner.' Friends all said, 'It's not simple, every dinner has a main course, it's better than our home's meals.' Let's take a look at our two people's seven-day dinners.
The first dinner was sweet and sour pig trotters and stir-fried heart-shaped spinach. Heart-shaped spinach used one pig trotters, the pig trotters, ginger slices, Shaoxing wine, sugar and white wine were added to the pot and the ingredients were cooked in a pressure cooker for 20 minutes. After the pressure cooker work finished, the pig trotters were cooled down, and the pig trotters were torn into small pieces with hands. The sweet and sour pig trotters are not difficult, the sweet and sour taste is delicious.
The second dinner was stir-fried heart-shaped spinach and braised tofu with snail. The braised tofu with snail first needs to make braised tofu. Braised tofu used 2 sheets of braised tofu, pork, squid, the pork and squid were chopped into meat floss, added salt, pepper and starch to mix and made meat floss. Braised tofu was soaked in warm water for 5 minutes, do not soak for too long, a layer of starch water was brushed on the surface of the braised tofu, and the braised tofu was rolled up. Braised tofu can be eaten directly, I made braised tofu with snail, put radish slices into the pot, boiled the radish until soft, added tofu sticks and braised tofu to simmer, after the tofu was cooked, salt was added to flavor.
The third dinner was braised beef and stir-fried heart-shaped spinach. Heart-shaped spinach is a very sweet vegetable in Guangdong. Stir-fried heart-shaped spinach uses beef shank, beef shank, ginger slices, cooking wine were added to boiling water, then cold water was rinsed, the old wine, Shaoxing wine, star anise, cinnamon flowers were added to the boiling water, the beef shank was stewed over low heat, the beef shank was stewed until it was soft and just right, and it was left to soak for 2 hours before cutting into slices. Braised beef is delicious.
The fourth dinner was spicy coconut heart-shaped spinach and tomato potato beef stew. Coconut heart-shaped spinach is the name I use, other places may call it round cabbage. Tomato potato beef stew used 3 tomatoes and 4 small potatoes and 500g beef shank. Beef shank was blanched and rinsed, a little oil and sugar were placed in a pot, and the sugar was melted over a small fire, then the beef cubes were fried, ginger slices and potatoes were added, the potatoes were fried until transparent. Then tomatoes, Shaoxing wine was stirred, and the ingredients were cooked in a pressure cooker for 20 minutes.
The fifth dinner was steamed heart-shaped spinach, salted duck egg and steamed sea bass. Sea bass first scraped off scales and removed gills, a little salt and cooking wine was applied to the surface of the fish, ginger slices were inserted into the fish belly, boiling water was used to steam the fish for 10 minutes after the fish was steamed, the water was poured out and the fish was topped with chopped green onion and steamed fish sauce, a little oil was splashed in a pan to fragrantly fry ginger slices and green onion, then the hot oil was drizzled on the fish.
The sixth dinner was spicy coconut heart-shaped spinach and heart-shaped spinach stir-fried with pork meatballs. I like to eat coconut heart-shaped spinach, stir-fried coconut heart-shaped spinach uses 1 spoon of chili sauce, the spicy taste is delicious. Heart-shaped spinach stir-fried with pork meatballs, the pork meatballs were cut in half, a little oil was put in a pot to fry the pork, a little oil was put in a pot to fry the pork, a little oil was put in a pot to fry the pork, a little oil was put in a pot to fry the pork, a little oil was put in a pot to fry the pork, a little oil was put in a pot to fry the pork, a little oil was put in a pot to fry the pork, a little oil was put in a pot to fry the pork, salt was added to flavor.
The seventh dinner was garlic stir-fried heart-shaped spinach and steamed chicken. Steamed chicken is what my husband and I like, used half a chicken, the chicken was cut into small pieces, mixed with ginger shreds, cooking wine, salt and starch, and steamed for 15 minutes after boiling.
This is our seven-day dinner, only one meat and one vegetable, for two people's portions, delicious and waste-free.
