A home-style stir-fry of cabbage with dried shrimp. The shrimp add a salty, savoury hit to otherwise mild cabbage.
How it is made
Dried shrimp are stir-fried with cabbage. The result is light rather than oily, with crisp, sweet pieces of shrimp through the leaves.
How to eat it
This is the vegetable dish for a shared meal, eaten with rice.
In Tainan
At the Black-faced Spoonbill Canteen in Qigu, among the fish ponds of the spoonbill reserve, the kitchen makes its own dried shrimp from local farmed shrimp, shelled, marinated, halved and sun-dried. It is the house speciality.
