馬蹄肉餅

I ate something similar yesterday and it was so...... disappointing! Had lunch at a coffeeshop with my colleagues and feels like i was being ripped off.

Nothing special about the dish and in fact, there was not much ingredients except steamed minced pork patties drizzle with a lousy salty gravy( a combination of salt water with dark soy sauce, thicken with cornflour). It's the worst gravy i ever come across in my life and the best thing is, for a pathetic piece of meat patties with another vegetable dish, it cost with $4.20!!! Daylight robbery! If the food is nice, i dun mind paying even it's at a coffeeshop, but it taste unacceptable!

Hence, I decided to cook this dish with my favourite water chestnut to comfort myself and mine taste a million times better than the "Disappointment" (not that i'm proud or over confident of myself, it's juz that anyone who can taste definitely cooks more better!)

Ingredients;
Minced pork (combination of 70% lean meat with 30% fats)
Baking soda
Light Soy sauce
Salt
Sesame oil
Pepper
Water chestnut, chopped

Cornflour

Thickening agent

Method;
-Marinate minced pork with the seasonings, set aside in fridge for 1 hr, stir in cornflour.
-Shaped into patties and steam on medium heat till cook.

-Garnish and serve.
-Enjoy!
