蟲草花炒鴨柳
潮濕的春季，令人常感飽滯，胃口欠佳。不妨以祛濕食材，弄幾道惹味小菜醒胃。令次特請來朗豪酒店明閣的大廚陳漢章師傅，教大家烹調適合春天食用的蟲草花炒鴨柳，既能養生祛濕，而且滋味無窮。
清熱祛濕 時令佳餚
春天天氣潮濕，很容易令人胃口大減，在炮製菜式時需要多花心思，所以今次陳漢章師傅特教大家製作清熱祛濕的蟲草花炒鴨柳。不少中式食材都有祛濕功效，例如豆類、薏米、冬瓜、鴨、鵪鶉等，但一般多只會用來煲湯，變化不多。陳師傅卻想到用鴨肉，配以蟲草花同炒，炮製具祛濕功效的菜式。
蟲草花是一種外表跟冬蟲草極為相似的菌類，多由人工培植，性質平和，而且不寒不燥，一家大小都適合食用。很多人喜歡用蟲草花煲老鴨，取其清熱祛濕，原來將這兩種材料連同西芹、雜椒等炒香，更為滋味。鴨柳在炒前應先走油，想吃得健康，走油後可用滾水再煮一會，去除油分，或只氽水不走油亦可，目的是去除鴨柳羶味。
另外，酒樓大廚常會用炸雀巢盛載炒物，這種香脆可口的伴碟小食，也可自家製作。捨棄一般採用的芋頭絲，在超市購買軟身的烏冬，排放在大碗底部，冷藏五分鐘後炸香，跟炸芋頭絲一樣卜卜脆，製法簡易。
