This is a dish that I often used to order at Din Tai Fung in LA. Along with their rightfully famous xiaolongbao. I had tried it a few times in China, but not with shrimp.

  • 1 tsp Dark Soy Sauce
  • 2 Tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 1 tsp Black Vinegar
  • 1 tsp Sesame Oil
  • 2 tsp Sugar

Equipment

  • Wok

Method
 

  1. Heat pan with vegetable oil, add green onion, garlic, shiitake and bok choy and stir fry until they wilt.
  2. Add rice cake and stir fry until the rice cakes are cooked through and flexible.
  3. Add shrimp and stir fry until shrimp just curl.
  4. Add a splash of Shaohsing wine to deglaze the wok and then add your sauce mixture and stir fry until rice cakes are soft. Serve with steamed vegetables.
  5. Note: If rice cakes are dried or vacuum packed, they will need soaking for three hours. For a faster method, cook for 2 minutes in boiling broth or until they float. Drain and reserve.
