Got takeaway kin to pai kuat from my dinner with family at a Chinese restaurant we love yesterday. I got leftover sliced mushrooms. Going to have them with my favorite shin ram yun noodles.

“”Pai kuat” refers to various Chinese and Southeast Asian pork dishes, notably Peking pork ribs, which are deep-fried and coated in a sweet and sour sauce. The dish is characterized by its sweet, tangy, and savoury flavours, with a crispy exterior and tender meat. Pork is a high-quality protein source vital for muscle mass, containing phosphorus for bone health, as well as zinc, vitamins B6, and B12 for immune function. Additionally, fatty cuts of pork provide Vitamin K2 beneficial for bones and heart health.”

“Sliced mushrooms are fresh, thinly cut mushrooms that save preparation time and are versatile for various dishes. Available in grocery stores or whole to slice at home, they are rich in potassium and B vitamins that support energy production and heart health. Mushrooms also provide antioxidants like selenium, contain chitin for gut health, and can produce vitamin D with UV exposure. Low in fat and sodium, they offer flavour without extra salt and serve as a plant-based protein alternative in meals.”

This is a simple leftovers of takeaway and it’s easy to add into shin ram yun noodles. For some colour, I have added my bountiful homegrown spring onion. My meal is hassle free, less utensil, comforting, and delicious. Let’s cook!!!
