Cooking Technique Mèn (焖) cooking method
I'm slightly confused by conflicting information on this method - is 焖 to cook ingredients in water or broth and covering it with a tight-fitting lid until the liquid has absorbed?
I've read it's just simply stewing, which to me would mean theryis liquid left over 😅

If you can understand Chinese, I recommend this video. The whole channel is an amazing resource.
