Coastal Living Plus - Fresh Shrimp At A Bargain

Thursday, August 16th, 2007

Every year we get shrimp from my husband’s work mate. Around here, a lot of the men go out on the sea to fish, some as a part time income and some just do it for fun while earning some cash. This year’s haul is fantastic! We just got 100lbs yes you read that right. 100 lbs of shrimp for a steal $3.50/lb. These are not those tiny little ones either. They are 16 count shrimp. Take a look.

Pork Tenderloin & Kai Lan

Saturday, August 4th, 2007

I loved the pork tenderloin that my mom used to make. It’s very easy, just marinade with soy sauce but taste out of this world. Steve loves this dish too. 

Recipe: 

½ pound of pork tenderloin – thinly sliced & marinade with soy sauce, dark soy sauce and a dash of sugar

Baby Kai Lan or regular Kai Lan – washed

Chopped garlic

Dash of Chinese cooking wine (Xao Xin Hua Teow Chiu)

White rice

Stir fry baby kai lan with chopped garlic. Add some water, pinch of salt and dash of Chinese cooking wine. Stir fry till leaves are deep green and there’s still some crunch left. Dish it out.
