Dishes
Dry-Fried Beef Rice NoodlesDry-fried beef rice noodles is a dish made from rice noodles, beef, bean sprouts, and other ingredients. First, slice the beef and marinate it. Cook the rice noodles and set aside. Heat a wok, stir-fry the beef until it changes color, then add the bean sprouts and rice noodles. Season with soy sauce and other seasonings, and quickly stir-fry until well combined.
Cantonese腊味 Baozi Rice in Clay PotGuangdong腊味煲仔饭 features rice cooked with cured sausages and meats, served with greens in a clay pot over low heat. The rice forms a crispy crust at the bottom, while the fat from the cured meats infuses the grains, making them glossy and tender.
Cantonese Boiled ChickenCantonese boiled chicken is a classic Yue cuisine dish made from a whole chicken, blanched and cooled. Fresh chicken, usually Sanhuang or Qingyuan chicken, is poached until cooked through, then immediately chilled in ice water to ensure tender, firm meat. Served sliced and arranged on a plate, it's typically enjoyed with ginger-scallion oil or soy sauce for dipping.
