Directions
Xiang Gu Chao Cai Hua (Shiitake-Fried Cauliflower), Taken from Ji Pin Su Shi (Best Vegetable Dishes), a 30-cent, 5-in-square, paperback cookbook from Wal-Mart in China. Simple, home-style Chinese fare. Chinese cooks are expected to determine the proportions of condiments and seasonings. Everything is ge shi liang–to taste. I’ve suggested amounts, but if they don’t seem right, just trust your own tastebuds. Although this recipe is named cauliflower, and the ingredients list cauliflower, the picture accompanying the recipe also showed broccoli.
