I'd like to know how to make:

Stir fried Shu Gu with pork

Stir-fry recipes are great since once you get the basic steps down, you can apply similar stir-fry recipes in much of the same fashion. Very versatile this technique! i usually prefer to serve this over white jasmine rice, but if there's a particular kind that you like, use that instead.

6 arrowroot bulbs, peeled and sliced .5 cm thick
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp cooking oil
.5 kg pork loin, thinly sliced
2 stalks welsh onions, green part cut into 2 cm length pieces, white parts finely chopped
dash of oyster sauce (if you don't have this, worcestershire or soy sauce will do)
Salt and pepper to taste

Heat oil in a pan or work, quickly brown garlic, then brown pork until done. Add in a couple dashes oyster sauce, salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup water. Throw in welsh onion greens and cover, simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, sprinkle chopped welsh onion and pepper, serve over rice.

D'oh! completely forgot: add the arrowroot slices after browning the pork!

You've got me except for the Eggplant. I've tried to like it. I really have. I just can't enjoy the stuff.

i prefer Chinese eggplants, they have more flavour than the garden variety you can get at the supermarket.

[torakiyoshi]

Do they still smell like eggplant?

it all looks really good. how's the Harbin brew?

[rockopup]

really light, didn't really impress me that much. it's your basic pilsner, though definitely a step up from Budweiser. probably better off with Budvar if you're into the pilsner types :3

[geddcoon]

ah, so it's just another random Chinese beer.

They need microbrews in China!

[rockopup]

i know, right? everywhere in Asia it only seems to be pilsners and Heineken. at least with Heineken it's barely halfway decent. Japanese beers, though, seem to have a greater variety available, just expensive!

Haha, I went to my friends page without logging in and this entry said "This entry might contain content that is not suitable for minors,"

So of course I made some assumptions with the title "Need to make this journal more tasty". Maybe a cock-n-balls doughnut from VooDoo Three? :D

oh, if only there was such a place down here... 'cept that won't be likely, so i guess i'll have to bide my time and wait until the next trip up north!
