Full OF Nutrition, Energy & Deliciousness, the Macanese Cuisine “Minchee”

The Macanese cuisine known as “minchee” includes fried potatoes mixed with minced beef and pork, and it’s typically eaten with rice and fried eggs. They make a simple meal and are quite easy to put together. Minchi, also known as minchee or 免治 (mian zhi), is a dish native to Macau. It’s an East-West fusion meal. Cantonese, Portuguese, South American, Malay, African, and Indian cuisines are all combined in Macau cuisine. I have to admit, the flavor combination is really powerful and fantastic! Use Minchee as an illustration. It is evident from the herbs, spices, and seasonings that this is a marriage between two continents. It is umami, flavorful, and has a wonderful scent from the seasoning blend.
That depends on the quantity of fat in the meat you choose. Lean meat won’t be as supple and tender.
Simple, this simple dish is ideal for any day of the week and, at least in my opinion, is the epitome of “comfort” cuisine!

A Quick & Simple Prep for Minchi,

Ingredients:

• 250 grams of simple pieces of beef and pig, minced or rough-chopped
• 1 large onion, diced finely
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 2 teaspoons of dark soy sauce
• One-third cup of light soy sauce
• 1 tsp. freshly crushed black pepper
• 2 medium-sized potatoes, peeled & chopped into small pieces
• Rice as you require
• Olive oil for cooking (or you can use any type of cooking oil)

Direction:

• In a big pan or wok, preheat some frying oil over medium heat.
• Add the chopped or minced pork and beef to the pan and stir-fry it until it is well-cooked and browned.
• When it begins to turn clear, add the diced onion and minced garlic.
• Stir-fry chopped potatoes in a pan until softened, approximately 5 minutes.
• Mix in the light and dark soy sauces, and season with black pepper. To uniformly cover the ingredients, gently mix.
• Once the potatoes are soft and cooked through, reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Once the Minchi is cooked, take the pan off the heat and serve it with steamed rice.

Enjoy your homemade Minchi.
