Braised Cabbage with Mushrooms & Pork

This is a dish that'll probably resonate with a lot of local kids. It's quick and easy, taking up less than half an hour to prep and cook. It's not the most wholesome dish, but I like to believe that the central ingredient of cabbage makes up for the canned stewed pork.


Ingredients (feeds 4):
1 whole beijing cabbage, cut into 2" squares
1 383gm can of stewed pork (it's that yellow coloured can widely available in NTUC)
1 can champignon mushrooms, sliced
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp canola oil
1/2 cup chicken stock
Light soy sauce for seasoning


Directions:
1) Fry garlic in canola oil till fragrant, less than 1 minute on medium-high heat.

2) Add stewed pork, breaking it up into smaller pieces.

3) Add mushrooms and chicken stock.

4) Add cabbage and toss to wilt, then cover for 5 minutes to let cabbage braise. 

5) Season with soy as necessary for taste.

ABC Brickworks Food Centre

싱가포르에 호커 센터 중에서 에이비씨 브릭워케 호커 센터를 우리가 제일 좋아해요. 실제로 싱가포르에서 가장 크고 유명한 호커 센터 중 하나예요. 가끔 외국인 여행자들이 이 호커 센터에서 식사하고 관광도 해요.  호커 음식은 내가 우리 나라 싱가포르에서 제일 사랑하는 것이에요. 호커 푸드는 내 컴포트 푸드여서 내 마음에 들어와요. 음식도 싸고 맛있고 종류도 많아요. 해외여행 가면 그리운 음식이 호커푸드인데 싱가포르에 돌아와서 가장 먼저 먹는 음식이 박초미예요.  박초미은 아마도 내가 제일 좋아하는 호커푸드예요. 나는 식초맛을 좋아하고 버섯볶음이 제일 맛있고 용기가 제일 맛있어요.   =========================   ABC Brickworks is one of the more well-known, and beloved, hawker centres in SG. The fact that tourists can sometimes be seen traipsing down the rows of neon-lit stalls is testament to its fame.  We hit up ABC a couple times a month, at least; the hawker centre is central enough that satisfying a local food craving here doesn't require an hour+-long round trip (unlike with Fengshan Bedok); there's ample enough lots that parking doesn't require the patience of a saint (unlike with Serangoon Gardens); seats are plentiful enough that large groups are able to find a table fairly easily, and ...

Hansang Korean Family Restaurant, Novena Square 2

Image
The third floor of Novena Square 2 has been dubbed "Little Korea" due to the prevalence of Korean-centric shops. There's a Korean supermarket, at least 2 Korean restaurants and a whole bunch of hole-in-the-wall fashion shops selling clothes imported from Korea. We were there one evening and were enticed by the delicious smells wafting from Hansang Korean Family Restaurant . One part of the restaurant is reserved for those having Korean BBQ and the other part is solely for diners not having the Korean BBQ. This separateness is great because you don't walk out smelling of bulgogi. A unique dining feature here is that they actually serve an  Amuse Bouche of sorts. The trio of bite-sized bits heralded the start of a good meal. The toasted Broad Beans were served at room temperature, with a savoury taste to the creamy nutty texture. The  Pumpkin Squash was a sweet, creamy and light mash. The Fried Mini Shrimp was salty, mildly spicy an...

Sin Hoi Sai Seafood Restaurant

You know it's well and truly Summer when all of the best shows on tv end their seasons' run. That's about the time we relinquish our couch potato lifestyles, and occupy our now-freed nights by hitting the gym. Sometimes, we try squeezing in a few dozen balls at the driving range as well. If we do, it's usually past most restaurants' last orders by the time we're done at the club, so it's pretty slim pickings for dinner. Through a series of unfortunate events (we'd originally popped by Nagomi but it was serving an omakase-only menu which would have been too tedious for a Tuesday night. So we went to Hai Di Lao opposite but it was a 45-minute wait, at 10pm on a week-night. So we made an about turn and went to Tiong Bahru instead), we ended up at Sin Hoi Sai , a seafood-cze char late-night joint popular with revelers. In fact, the last time I was at Sin Hoi Sai was for some supper, post-clubbing, when I was still in my teens. In a drunken stupor of cour...
