Instructions
Prepare the sambal belacan paste
-
Blend or pound the garlic, chilli, shallots, salt and belacan together. Add some water if using a blender to make it easier to blend.
Cook the sambal belacan paste
-
In a pot, heat up the Emborg Cook & Bake over medium-high heat. Sauté the blended/pounded ingredients until toasty and fragrant.
Add the main ingredients
-
Add oyster sauce, the bunch of coriander roots, lala, and all of the mushrooms. Saute for about 1-2 minutes just to combine everything together and toast slightly.
Add liquid
-
Add water and chicken bouillon/stock and bring to a boil. Once boiling, bring down to a simmer and cook gently until mushrooms and lala are cooked – about 5 minutes. Skim off any scum that rises to the surface.
Thicken the broth
-
Add the potato starch slurry while stirring vigorously to thicken the broth.
Incorporate the cream
-
Add Emborg Cooking Cream, then taste for seasonings and adjust as needed. You may also add some of the Emborg Parmesan at this stage for additional seasoning and creaminess.
Serve
-
In an individual serving bowl, add freshly cooked spaghettini and ladle over the broth. Top with Emborg Grated Parmesan, calamansi lime, and coriander leaf as garnishing. Enjoy!
