新版羅漢齋 The Ultimate Modern Buddha’s Delight

新版羅漢齋：經典滋味的現代變身

傳承與創新：我的 12 種食材現代版羅漢齋

農曆新年中，如果說有哪一道齋菜最具代表性，那一定非「羅漢齋」莫屬。

記得小時候，每年除夕夜吃過一頓豐盛的團圓飯後，大年初一與正月十五那天，媽媽會堅持為我們準備一頓齋菜，而羅漢齋必定是其中的主菜之一。

後來我有了自己的家庭，在尚未吃素之前，我也依照母親的慣例，在農曆新年初一與十五這兩天，親自為家人烹煮這道充滿意義的菜式。

孩子們小時候對這道齋菜充滿好奇，總愛追問它的由來。我便依據民間流傳的典故與故事，為他們娓娓道來。

腐皮素燒鵝 Beancurd Sheet Vegan Roast Goose

老公常笑我，都一把年紀了，怎麼見妳整天愈來愈忙似的 ! 確實，自從步入了這個 「人到中年萬事休」的人生階段後，對我來說生活卻比從前更忙碌了，但並非來自慌亂或焦躁的情緒，而是來自一種想把每一天過得更充實的忙。經營小店、照顧家庭、佛堂義工，以及在有限的時間裡創作，讓我的日子過得豐富而滿足。

今年，為了我將要負擔的責任與承諾，我決定稍稍放慢腳步。不是停止做菜，而是暫時減少拍攝料理影片的數量，把心力回歸到攝影與書寫食譜之中。 

腐皮素雞素燒鴨 Bean Curd Sheet Vegan Chicken & Vegan Roast Duck

The first time I tried this delicious vegan ‘chicken’ made with tofu skin, I was a very young girl and was still living in Hong Kong. My parents had been to a temple and brought them back for us. They were made by their master - Shīfu, one of the venerables there.

第一次吃到這些用腐皮做的美味純素雞時，我還是一個非常年輕的女孩，當時尚住在香港。 我的父母是佛教徒，那天他們從寺院帶回來這些腐皮素雞，告訴我們那是由他們師父親手做的，師父是寺院裡的一位法師。

Golden Salt and Pepper Tofu — Chinese New Year Good Luck Gourmet 

今年農曆新年是1月 22日。 自我自己成為母親之後，每年歲末新春都會非常忙碌地用媽媽傳給我的食譜，和自己多年實踐心得，來準備許多傳統的節慶食品。

Chinese New Year falls on the 22nd January this year. I’ll be very busy cooking lots of traditional celebratory foods using recipes passed down from my mum and from my own many years of practice ever since I became a mother myself. 

Vegan Dan Dan Noodles | 美味素擔擔麵

Who doesn't love Dan Dan noodles? This world famous noodle dish, so simple to make yet full of local flavours, colours and traditions. It’s not merely a bowl of noodles, but also a bowl full of history and an iconic traditional food. 

誰不愛吃擔擔麵？它可謂名傳中外，不單是一碗麵，更是一道充滿地方色彩和民間傳統的經典美食。

健康美味素煎釀三寶 Vegan Pan-Fried Stuffed Three Treasures

煎釀三寶是香港最受歡迎的地道街頭小吃之一，也是港式茶樓飯店的點心和經典小菜。自從吃素之後，我第一時間便把它列入必做素菜的美食榜中！家人和朋友吃過之後，都喜愛得很！孩子更要馬上取得食譜，回家自己泡製！

Fried Stuffed Three Treasures is one of the most popular authentic street foods in Hong Kong, and it is also a dim sum or a classic small dish which you can often find in Hong Kong-style teahouse restaurants. Ever since I became a vegan, it has been down as one of the must-do meals on my long list! It is much loved by our friends and family also; my children requested the recipe so that they can make them at home for themselves!

Vegan Wonton Noodle Soup 美味素雲吞湯麵

以前每次回香港，第一樣要吃的東西必定是茶樓點心，然後便會去大街小巷尋找最美味的港式雲吞麵大快朵頤。

In the past, whenever I went back to Hong Kong, I would always try to hunt down the best dim sum restaurants and wonton noodle shops, these were both some of my favourite foods to eat from childhood.

自製照燒醬紅燒嫩豆腐 Pan-Fried Silken Tofu cooked in Homemade Teriyaki Sauce

我們全家都愛吃豆腐。但最接近的唐人街離住處那麼遠，要經常買回來做菜並不容易。幸而每間大型超市一年四季都有那些紙盒包裝的絹豆腐。它們真的又軟又滑，吹彈得破！但別以為絹豆腐這麼幼嫩便很難處理，其實只要付出一點心思和時間，你可以把這些非常健康營養的好東西變化為極之美味的菜餚。一經嘗試之後，相信這道菜式將會成為你心愛的食譜，一款你會不時重覆為自己和家人泡製的拿手小菜。

We love tofu, but living so far away from the nearest China town means we can’t always get it as often as we would like. Luckily local supermarkets do have those carton-packed silken tofu on the shelves all year round, they are really silky-smooth and delicate. If you handle it with care and cook it with love and attention, this super healthy and fantastically delicious dish will be something you love to cook for yourself and your family all the time.
