Braised silk gourd (Bai you si gua) from Land of Plenty: A Treasury of Authentic Sichuan Cooking (page 310) by Fuchsia Dunlop

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Wow, talk about indexing gone wrong. The EYB ingredients list pork bones, chicken pieces and scallions, all ingredients for the 3/4 cup of chicken stock used. Anyway, this is just a simple stir-fry of the silk gourd with slices of ginger, and the stock added at the end, braising the mixture for a few minutes. Very simple recipe to showcase my fresh home-grown silk gourd.
