1 voto | 2520 views

Last week my friend Lisa took me and others to an upscale Chinese restaurant in Palo Alto, California. She's been to this restaurant many times and she knew exactly what to order. One of the items she ordered was not on the menu, but the kitchen staff would make it for her each time. All she did was describe the dish to our server. It was aboslutely delicious! I made sure to scrutinize the dish to know the ingredients in it. The big secret, I think is in the XO sauce, available from most Asian grocery stores. Cracking a fresh egg over the dish is a nice perk it seems.

I promised Lisa I would try to make it at home and share the recipe with her. I hope she'll like it as much as she does the restaurant version.
