Radish rice

Nasi Lobak is a savory rice dish that combines white rice with sautéed radish with spiced chicken and dried shrimp.

Chicken rice

This "Chicken Thigh Rice" marinates boneless chicken thighs with scallion, ginger, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, cooking wine, sugar and a little oil, then puts them into a pot with washed rice, adds water to cover the rice, and cooks them in one click. The rice absorbs the sauce and chicken aroma, and each grain has a warm, salty and sweet taste. The chicken is tender and juicy; the fragrance of scallion and ginger is looming in the heat, adding layers. The whole thing is done in one pot, saving time and effort, and full of homely flavor, but you need to reserve about half an hour for marinating, and the ratio of water and marinade must be properly controlled to avoid the rice being too wet or the chicken being too salty/slightly dry.

First-class ginger oil duck

I went to the provincial capital to find food before, and a dish of braised duck with ginger oil made me "dizzy"! The price of 150 yuan per case is only a few pieces of meat, which made me, a meat lover, say "my wallet is crying". After returning, I immediately started the "food reproduction plan". After many experiments, I finally reproduced this delicacy! The improved version reduces the amount of oil used, but retains 95% of the original flavor, successfully turning this restaurant's hard dish into a home-cooked delicacy~ The essence of braised duck with ginger oil is to use a large amount of ginger slices to stir-fry the mellow ginger oil, which can not only completely remove the fishy smell, but also stimulate the unique aroma. The duck meat is slowly stewed with ginger oil. The skin is slightly chewy, but the inside is tender and juicy. Every fiber is full of salty, fragrant and slightly sweet thick sauce. The moment the lid is opened, the rich fragrance hits you in the face. Eating it with white rice is simply the ultimate enjoyment of the taste buds! Come and see my reproduction results (compare pictures at the end of the article)
