Braised Pork Balls with Cabbage and Shiitake Mushrooms

Overview

There are many ways to cook cabbage. But my Dabao loves this roasted meatballs. In the past, I fried the meatballs and cooked them with cabbage. It’s almost the season of showing off my flesh, so I’m also entering the season of losing weight. Today I changed the fried meatballs to boiled meatballs to reduce fat intake and taste great!

  8. Pour in the meatballs and soup. Don't add too much soup, just fill it up to two-thirds of the way through the dish. And shiitake mushrooms. Add 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, cover and simmer for 3-5 minutes. The baby cabbage I used is tenderer than the cabbage, and it only takes 3 minutes to simmer.
