A dish created by my mother in the kitchen by trial and error…the natural sweetness and MSG of the cabbage and seaweed will season this dish naturally. No artificial ingredients necessary.

Steam bean curd wrap

Ingredients:

Bean curd skin

Seaweed

Chinese cabbage (Bak choy)

Minced pork (or other meat if you wish)

Seasoning: Sesame oil

Preparation:

1. Soak the bean curd skin in water for 15mins if it is too salty.

2. Mix the minced meat with sesame oil.

3. Each package is made out of one sheet of seaweed, one piece of cabbage, and 1-2 tablespoons of minced meat, wrapped together in the bean curd skin. First, lay the bean curd skin. Then lay the seaweed. Next is a leave of cabbage, and finally minced meat in the centre.

4. Seal the package by folding it like a present. Lay them side by side on your steaming dish to prevent them from opening. Put it over boiling water and steam. Serve hot.

Makes 3 18cmx8.5cmx6.5cm loaf tins.

250g unsalted butter
200 g sugar
5 eggs, beaten

Card holder (back)

For yourself
- Put up own name (to decorate your room or table)
- Use it to label the wonderful treasures you display at home

A ‘Thank you’ card can be very generic, but for my friend’s sale of imported tees and blouses, I decided on these as they reflect her product:

Time flies faster than the winter bleeze,

Over the flowing river,

And among the lushes green.

As the cheerful spring & flowing summer goes,

Autumn leaves turn red and gold.

Let not the winter sadden you,

For I’ll always be there for you.
