Cereal Chicken Chop


'Cereal Chicken Chop' ......... After trying out the 'Cereal Prawns' I experimented the premix cereal with chicken but this time I omitted the bird eye chillies.  In fact this cereal is very versatile, can be used for fish fillet as well!  Result, just one word ...... Yummy!



Just pan fry the marinated chicken thigh, once cooked, dish out.  Melt some butter, stir-fry the curry leaves, cereal mix and return the chicken into the mixture and you are done.






Dish out the chicken pieces onto a serving plate, add in some cucumber slices, shredded carrots and cabbage, sprinkle on some lime, and dinner is ready .............. Enjoy!

  • 3 chicken legs, skin removed and deboned
  • 40 gm cereal mix
  • 1 Japanese cucumber, peeled and sliced
  • 1 stick carrot, shredded
  • Some cabbage, shredded
  • 1 to 1.1/2 Tbsp margarine/butter
  • 2 to 3 kaffir ~ limau kasturi leaves, optional
  • Oil for frying
Preparation
  1. Wash and pat dry the chicken legs.
  2. Pan fry the chicken legs in a non-stick pan, flip from side to side till thoroughly cooked.  Dish out.
  3. Wash the pan, heat up some butter, once melted, toss in the curry leaves and stir-fry.
  4. Add in the cereal mix and  the cooked chicken pieces.  Stir-fry and dish out onto serving plates.

    If you go to my 'Cereal Prawns' recipe there's a pic of the premix.
    It's oats with some premix, think some salt, sugar, pepper, maybe some ajimoto. Come to think of it, used to have Nestum dishes in the restaurant menu, but this has faded somewhat.

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.

Double Boiled Herbal Chicken Soup

Double boiling is slow cooking ........ means to put a soup pot or any covered ceramic or steel pot inside a bigger pot, immerse in boiling water, and let the soup cook at a lower temperature.  Hence the soup is cooked from heat generated from the boiling water and not from direct heat source. Double boiling lets the soup ingredients slowly release their nutrients into the soup, thus making it tasty and wholesome.  It's a long cooking process, roughly averaging 2 to 4 hours.  The tip is not to open the cover to check on the soup as it'll bring down the temperature and affect the cooking process.  The plus point is there's little evaporation and the soup will not boil over.  The only thing is to monitor that there's enough water in the bigger pot and not let it run dry.  Of course, nowadays, the slow cooker is another alternative to double boiling, saves the hassle of checking the water level.
