Man Fu Yuan Executive Chinese Chef Aaron Tan.
Chef Pung Tu Lin’s Braised Silky Bird’s Nest with Crab Meat, Silver Sprout and Superior Pumpkin Bisque is made with house-made superior stock of old chicken, cured meat, pork ribs and a 30-year-old Huat Tiao Chiew and Lee Kum Kee’s Oyster Sauce. The broth is balanced with the pumpkin’s sweetness. A rarer, more premium Indonesian cave bird’s nest, crab meat and crunchy silver sprouts are added for more texture.
Chef Fok Wing Tin, the founder of Singapore Hong Kong Chefs Association, presents his Sauteed Egg White with Crab Meat and Caviar, a reimagined version of the Cantonese Stir Fried Milk. Egg whites are stir-fried with milk and crab to a fluffy, airy texture and served bite-size on Iceberg Lettuce and topped with dollops of Salmon Ikura caviar.
Chef Peter Tsang, an advocate for healthy Chinese cuisine, presents his Steamed Duck with Plum, Ginger and Chinese Wine, inspired by the Teochew-style braised duck. Chef Tsang usually cooks this with goose. A whole duck is wok cooked to seal the skin and then slow-braised with Lee Kum Kee’s Plum Sauce, Hoisin Sauce and Chu Hou Paste. Herbs and spices such as star anise, cardamom, bay leaves and shallots are added for added flavour.
Chef Aaron Tan presents the Braised 12 Hear Australia “Hui Yong” Dried Abalone with Goose Palm. The Australian 12-head Abalone is soaked for several days before slow-cooking it for 12 hours with pork ribs, skin and cured meats so you can enjoy jam-like ramen-egg texture. It is served with braised Goose Palm and has dried abalone shavings to garnish.
