Ingredients
8 Large Shrimps/Prawns
½ Teaspoon White Pepper powder (or black pepper)
¼ Cup All Purpose Flour
1 Egg
Oil for frying
Salt To Taste
1 Teaspoon Mustard Sauce
A Dash of Red Pepper powder
For Dipping Sauce
1 Tablespoon Soy sauce
2 Teaspoons White Vinegar
1 Teaspoon Toasted Sesame Seeds

Method

To Make Dipping Sauce
Combine soy sauce, vinegar, chopped green onion, and sesame seeds in a small bowl and mix well. Set aside.
For The Shrimps 

Shell the shrimps, devein, butterfly cut shrimps wash and pat dry with a paper towel. Score the shrimp on both sides so that it won’t shrink when cooked.

Put the shrimp on a large plate, belly side up and side by side without touching each other.

Season the shrimp with mustard sauce, salt and white pepper over top, evenly. 

Coat the inside of the shrimp with flour.
Heat up a pan over medium flame. Add little cooking oil to the pan.
Beat an egg with a pinch of salt in a bowl.

Dip the shrimp into the egg and place it in the pan. Repeat this with the rest of the shrimp but don’t crowd them in the pan.

Cook for a few minutes until the bottom of the shrimp turns a little light golden brown, pressing down slightly with a spatula every now and then. Turn them over and cook another couple of minutes until both sides are light golden brown. Place them in a paper towel to drain any excess oil.

Serve with Dipping Sauce. Enjoy!!

Taiwanese Pork Chops - Keto

Packed with flavors, this Asian inspired pork chops will be a tasty addition to your meal. I, adapted this recipe to make it keto friendly.

Ingredients
1 Tablespoons Dark Soy Sauce
3 Tablespoons Light Soy Sauce or Coconut Aminos
8 Large Cloves Garlic - pounded to a coarse paste
2 Teaspoons Sake or Rice Wine Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Five-Spice Powder
½ Teaspoon Red Chilly Powder
4 Skinless Pork Chops
4 Tablespoons Almond Flour or Oats Fiber Powder
1 Tablespoon Oil - for frying
Method 

Combine soy sauce, garlic, sugar, sake, 2 tablespoons water, red chilly powder and five-spice powder in a large bowl. Set aside.
Using a kitchen mallet or a rolling pin, pound pork chops until ⅛ inch thick. Score near the edges to prevent curling when fried. Marinate pork in soy sauce mixture, coverit and refrigerate it for an hour at least.
Remove each pork chop from the marination, coating each piece well with oats fiber powder. Refrigerate for another 15 minutes.

Add the chops to the pan and let them sear on both sides, turning once. This should take about 4 minutes on each side, until a golden brown crust is formed. Drain on a paper towel-lined wire rack.
Easy and delicious! Serve with cauliflower rice or keto mashed potatoes. Enjoy !!

Keto Chinese Steamed Buns#BreadBakers

If you are on Keto and longing for Chinese steamed buns ,then these are for you which are not only gluten free, but pillow-soft, delicious and will go well with any Asian food. You can also make a sandwich with whatever filling you want. 

These also freeze very well. If you want them sweet, then you can increase the sweetener in the batter. I enjoyed them as a savory sandwich and also make these to enjoy with gravy instead of rice. These do not have an egg taste or flavor. To cut that flavor, have added a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. Do try these they are soo..oo.. good!

Ingredients
½ Cup Almond Flour
⅛ Teaspoon Stevia powder
1 Teaspoon Baking powder
⅛ Teaspoon Salt
4 Large Eggs
1 Tablespoon Mayonnaise
1 Teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
Method

Mix all dry ingredients together and mix well then add the eggs and mayonnaise mix till combined.

Place a 2 tablespoons of batter in each silicone mold and steam it for 10 minutes on high flame or on a water bath in the oven 180°C for 13 minutes. 

Cool  & unmold.

Slice and  make sandwiches with the filling of your choice 

or dunk them in any gravy.
My Notes

I used an aluminum cupcake tin and they didn't stick at all. I used steel plates to make large ones, but batter did stick to the bottom. Make them in silicon mold or place a greased parchment paper before adding the batter to the steel plates.

Nasi Goreng- Vegetarian#EatTheWorld

This is a National dish of Indonesia. I have made a vegetarian version, Nasi Goreng can simply refer to fried pre-cooked rice or left over rice, a meal including stir-fried rice. This rice is a one pot meal, you do not require any accompaniment with this dish. 

Its a meal in itself. You can make it spicy according to your taste. There are many ingredients in this dish which you can substitute or even eliminate, it does not change the taste of the dish. Do not get discouraged to prepare this dish by looking at the long list of ingredients, let me assure you that this dish is easy and quick to make. So here is the recipe.

Ingredients
2 Cups Rice
1 Large Carrot - peeled & cut into matchsticks
12 French beans - chopped
½ head Cabbage - finely shredded
5 Shallots - chopped
2 Cloves Garlic - minced
1 Tablespoon Red Chilli Sauce
1 Stalk Celery - finely chopped
½ Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black or White Pepper
2 Tablespoon Sweet Dark Soy Sauce * See Notes
Salt To Taste
4 Tablespoon Groundnut Oil
For The Ground Paste
1 Large Ripe Tomato
1 Teaspoon Coriander seeds
4 Cloves Garlic
4 Large Fresh Red Chilies* See Notes (You can used 4 dry Kashmiri red chilies)
4 Almonds
For Garnish
1 Bunch Scallions/Spring Onion Greens - chopped
Chopped Coriander Leaves

Method

Soak the rice for 30 minutes then cook add few drops of peanut oil while cooking the rice, this will make the rice grainy and will not stick to each other. Do not cook the rice till it entirely soft strain it one stage before that. The rice once cooked should be grainy.

Grind the tomato, garlic , red chillies, almonds & coriander together to form a smooth paste and keep it aside.

In a large wok, heat the oil on medium flame add the chopped onions. Then add ground paste saute them till the sides starts leaving oil. Add in the carrots, beans and cabbage and saute them till the vegetables are tender. Add the cooked rice, salt, pepper, red chilli sauce and sweet soy sauce.

Mix well till combined. Garnish this chopped spring onion greens and coriander leaves.
My Notes
To make the Sweet Dark Soy Sauce I cooked it with 2 teaspoons palm jaggery.
Don' t have fresh red Chilies, you can used 4 dry Kashmiri red chilies. Soak them in warm water and then grind.
