Steamed Abalones with Ginger and Fresh Beancurd Sheet

"3 Less" Dish

Feature

Dried abalone and fresh abalone have the same nutrient content. Most of us stew dried abalone in thick sauce which increases our salt (sodium) intake. Why not consider cooking fresh abalone? Simply steam them and highlight their savoriness with just a litter soy sauce.

Cooking Method

1. Wash and trim abalones. Set aside.
2. Cut fresh soybean sticks into pieces. Shred ginger and spring onion. Rinse.
3. Placed the fresh beancurd sheets followed by the abalones on a plate. Sprinkle with sugar and steam for 10 minutes.
4. Top with shredded ginger and spring onion. Pour the pre-heated olive oil over.
5. Serve with light soy sauce on side.
