Steamed Lap Cheong (15 mins)

Lap cheong
Ginger

This dish is great for days when you're in a rush!

1. Boil a small pot of water and when it reaches boiling temperature, put the lap cheong in and let it boil for about 2 minutes. 
2. Pour away the boiling water and rinse the lap cheong with cold water.
3. Typically, there will be a protective plastic-like 'skin' on the lap cheong. Remove it.
4. Slice the lap cheong into thin slices. 
5. Peel and slice some ginger into thin slices too. 
6. Place the ginger pieces on a stainless steel dish, then place the lap cheong slices on the ginger pieces.
7. Place a steaming rack in the middle of a wok or non-stick frying pan. Then, fill the wok/pan with water; the water level should be slightly lower than the top of the steaming rack. 
8. Cover the wok/pan and let the water boil. Again, once the water reaches boiling temperature, place the dish with the lap cheong and ginger slices on the steaming rack and then, cover the wok/pan. 
9. Let the whole thing steam for 10 minutes.
10. Serve.
