Method · 做法
1
Soak the sliced liver in cold water for 15 minutes. Drain.
2
Heat the sesame oil in a wok. Sweat the ginger for 1 minute until fragrant.
3
Add the liver, soy sauce, and rice wine. Stir-fry quickly. Liver should stay slightly pink inside; overcooking is the cardinal sin.
4
Bring 500ml of broth or water to a boil in a separate pot. Add the mee sua. Cook 2 to 3 minutes until soft.
5
Combine the liver and broth-mee sua in a serving bowl. Salt and pepper at the table.
Herbs & safety · 安全

Most of the alcohol cooks off during the boil, but trace amounts can remain. If you are breastfeeding, time feeds two to three hours after eating, or skip the wine.
