Baked Pumpkin Strips with Salted Egg Yolk

Method

1. 01

   Step 1

   Cut the pumpkin into strips, blanch them briefly in boiling water, then drain.

   

2. 02

   Step 2

   Press the cooked salted duck egg yolk with a spoon or scraper to crush it a little.

   

3. 03

   Step 3

   Sprinkle cornstarch onto the pumpkin strips and mix well. I use chopsticks to hold the edges and rotate them to coat them with cornstarch.

   

4. 04

   Step 4

   Heat a little oil in a frying pan and fry the flour-coated pumpkin strips over low heat until golden brown. Fry longer if you want them crispier.

   

5. 05

   Step 5

   Once the pumpkin is fried and removed from the oil, add a little more oil to the pan and stir-fry the crushed egg yolks and a little sugar until foamy. Quickly add the pumpkin strips and stir-fry briefly before removing from the heat.

   Step 6

   Simmer the egg yolk mixture briefly; it will thicken and create a frosty coating on the pumpkin strips. Don't cook it for more than a minute. Make a small batch at a time, haha, be careful with calories when dieting!
