Categories: Chinese, Starter
     Yield: 16 Servings

     1 kg Taro root
     6 c  Water
     4    Dried shiitake mushrooms
   250 g  Flour
   150 g  Bacon
   1/4 c  Oil
    60 g  Dried shrimp
     2    Chinese sausages
     1 tb Chives; chopped
     2 tb Sugar
     2 ts Salt
     1 ts Pepper

 Peel and shred the taro.

 Heat the oil in a wok and saute the taro until soft. Add the water and
 simmer for 15 minutes.

 Wash and soak the Chinese mushrooms and dried shrimp until soft.

 Dice the Chinese mushrooms, dried shrimp, bacon, and Chinese sausages
 separately.

 Stir-fry each ingredient separately in a hot wok, then return all
 these ingredients into the wok and add the cooked taro and the
 seasoning.

 Sift in the flour and bind into a thick batter. Adjust the flavor to
 taste.

 Pour the batter into a greased cake mould, place in a steamer, and
 steam over high heat for 1 hour. Remove, smooth the top with a
 greased spoon, then sprinkle on the chopped chives. Set aside to cool.

 Slice the taro pudding and shallow-fry in an oiled frying pan until
 both sides are golden brown.

 Serve hot with oyster sauce.
