Recipe: Braised minced pork with Chinese mushrooms

My boy likes eating his rice with soup, as he doesn't like his rice "dry". So when I don't have time to make Chinese soup for dinner, what do I do?

Make a saucy braised dish, then we can mix the braising sauce to our rice and eat it all together. Kids love this.. I know I did when I was a child ;P

This is a dish you can prepare in under 20 minutes, and the flavours are really rich and delicious. You can even add in chopped carrots and other veggies that your kids like if you do not have time to cook a vegetable dish.
