White chicken fat 100 g
Ginger water (for mixing the scallop paste and thickening) 10 g
Cooking wine 15 g
Salt 5 g
MSG 3 g

Instructions

1

Make the scallop paste

Wash the scallops, drain, and mince into a paste. Add ginger water and mix into a thick paste, stirring until elastic. Add salt, MSG, cooking wine, and 3 egg whites and mix well, then add the white chicken fat and starch and stir evenly. Set aside.

2

Steam the scallops

Place the prepared scallop paste into a large plate and spread it flat. Wipe a piece of oil paper around the rim of the plate with a little oil, then steam in a steamer for about 10 minutes. Take out and set aside.

3

Make the egg-white foam batter

Crack 3 egg whites into a plate and beat with chopsticks until foamy, then add the flour and mix well.

4

Decorate and steam

Transfer the steamed scallops to a clean plate, spread the egg-foam batter over them, and arrange the ham and lettuce leaves into a pattern. Steam for 1 minute, then remove.

5

Pour the sauce

Pour chicken broth into a wok, add ginger water and salt, and bring to a boil. Add wet starch to thicken, then pour the sauce over the premium scallops. Serve immediately.
