Abalone with oyster sauce

Ingredients and preprocessing

1 processed abalone (from Premium Abalone). Soak in hot water for about 10 minutes before being served to retain its texture, flavour and colour; then cut into thin slices.

In case of using canned abalone: cut into slices, marinate with salt, sugar, seasoning powder and olive oil for 15 minutes.

1 litre of chicken broth

Processed sea cucumber (optional)

Oyster sauce, white wine, corn starch, ginger, garlic.

Shiitake mushroom: boil and run through water several times to reduce bitterness

Broccoli/asparagus: wash until clean

Making the sauce: Boil the chicken broth, add oyster sauce, sugar, wine, soya sauce and corn starch. Stir until thick.

Presentation: Place the abalone and broccoli/asparagus on a plate, pour the sauce over and decorate with some cilantro. Best served warm.
