Hi, I’m Tiffy 🙂
Lately, my family and I have been a little homesick. We were supposed to be traveling back to Taiwan, but with life and many unexpected events, we had to cancel our trip. So I thought, why not surprise my family with an 8-course meal with dishes that remind us of home?
I started prepping the day before to help us save some time on the day of the dinner. We started with my signature Braised Pork Belly Rice, I then wrapped up some wontons and made sure to make enough to have some in the freezer for the future! Next up, the buns for the Gua Baos, which will be featured in my cookbook! We ended the night by marinating the chicken for the Popcorn Chicken, and soaking the rice for the Sticky Rice.
The next day, we started by cutting all the veggies and making the Sticky Pork Belly for the Gua Baos. We then moved on to my grandma’s Sticky Rice, which features my SECRET SAUCE!! We deep-fried the Popcorn Chicken and made a big batch of my favorite Spicy Cucumber Salad. Next up, we got Steamed Eggplant drizzled in the most delicious garlic sauce. We boiled up the wontons from yesterday and made a spicy dipping sauce using my secret sauce! And last but not least, we got the beautiful Steamed Fish!
Let me know which dish was your favorite and if you enjoyed this episode of Cooking For My Family!
