Savourydiary | Ngoh Hiang

# Savourydiary | Ngoh Hiang

Remember my previous post on Ngoh Hiang?
Yesterday, I decided to, "let's try this out."
This isn't the original/authentic recipe to follow but it taste as good.
We had so much fun making this. 
By we, I meant I asked my partner for help. 
Help in the most tedious step : rolling the Ngoh Hiang. 
HAHAHAHA.
So ladies, ask your kid to "play around" the kitchen and asked them to help you out. 
I'm sure they will have as much fun as you're eating the end product.
hehe *winks*

In a bowl, mix :
 Minced chicken and prawn,
Salt and pepper,
Diced carrots(originally used water chestnut) and onions,
and the KEY INGREDIENT : CHINESE FIVE SPICE
an egg and a bit of flour
roll em' in popiah skin ( originally used beancurd skin )

and FRY THEM! 
Dip in Dark Sweet Soy Sauce.

YUUUUUUUUUU-MMMEEEEEEY!
It's CRISPY and full of distinctive flavors.

Ngo Hiang is like the Chinese version of sausage I guess.
It's a mixture of chicken meat and shrimp with Chinese 5 spices which is rolled in dried bean curd skin.

The first time trying this was when i'm 14!
During home economics classes which one of my Chinese friend cooked for her practical. 
It was so nice, I keep wondering what she cooked.

Till recently, i found that it is Ngo Hiang.

Usually I eat the instant Ngo Hiang which is filled with too much flour. (not that nice)
Just like instant sausages, less meat more flour. Yucks!

Then, I found this gem nearby my school. 
Which I got hooked. 
And best is it is HALAL!

It's filled with so much meat and beautifully flavored.
It is best eaten dipped in the sweet dark soya sauce.

Try them! No regrets!
A roll of crispy fried Ngo Hiang at $3.20.

Savourydiary | Chicken Rice Recipe

# savourydiary Chicken Rice
Today, I'll be sharing with you my chicken rice recipe that was taught by my friend. It is easy and tasty!

This is the follow up from the previous recipe, Savourydiary | Chicken Soup/Broth.


Chicken Rice:
What you need
What to do
Time
 3 cups of broth/soup
 3 cups of rice
 Salt
 Sesame oil
Combine all and cook in rice cooker
25mins

While waiting, prepare your chickens. I have the "steamed" chicken and the roasted chicken. Well, both is to my liking. 

From the broth, remove the chicken and you get the "steamed” chicken. hahahah. I personally have not tried any nice "steamed" chicken and never enjoyed eating them. I found this as an alternative. We'll make do okie? Heh.

Roasted Chicken:
What you need
What to do
Time
Chicken from the broth
Oyster Sauce
Blackpepper sauce
Sesame oil / Butter / Oil
 Mix well and put it in the  oven / air fryer
 15 mins
Simple right? So easy to cook 1 dish (chicken soup / broth) and use it to make into another 3 sides (chicken rice, "steamed" chicken and roasted chicken)

Hmmmm. Let me add on 1 more sides! My all-time favourite chicken rice chilli sauce.

Chicken Rice Chilli Sauce:
What you need
What to do
Time
Chicken broth/soup
Red chilli + chilli padi
Lemon / Lime juice
Sugar and Salt
Ginger
Blend all and bring them to boil.
 5 mins


Let's try cooking and see if it turns out as delicious as mine! :)



Till the next recipe,
