Rice cooker chicken rice



This is what I cooked for the weekend.  An easy super duper all-in-one dish accompanied with a vegetable soup on the side.  I was just too lazy to whip up any other dishes as the weather is so super hot and humid these days and my brain cells couldn't function properly.  So, as long as it can fill the stomach, it's all that matters!




The slices of red meat is sweet  'kwai fah yoke'.







If you're hard pressed for time, can consider this option for a quick and wholesome meal.

    I cook this pretty often but I used Blessed Homemaker's recipe. Next time I will try yours. What is 'Kwai Fah yoke'?

      It's a piece of flat sweet meat, popular during CNY. You can substitute with Chinese sausages. You can see it in the above picture.

    Hi

    Will your rice stick to the side and base of the rice cooker? I always scope up about more than a quarter bowl at the end of the day. May I know how to pretend this from happening. Thanks

      I'm using a non-stick rice cooker, so I don't encounter that problem.

    Ah yes... this is one super-duper easy dish that I cook occasionally. The only difference is I use Chinese sausages instead of 'Kwai Fah Yoke'.

      Yes the heat is getting on my nerves. Adding in salted fish is more fragrant but unfortunately not appreciated amongst my family members.

Braised Pork Belly with Mui Choy ~ 梅菜焖五花肉

Mui Choy is preserved mustard greens and there are two types, one is salty while the other is sweet.  There are many ways of cooking mui choy with pork belly.  Instead of braising, you can steam it with minced pork but here I am using only the sweet mui choy and I braised the pork belly with it.  This is a flavourful dish and you can serve it with plain rice or plain porridge.

Snow Swallow Dessert ~ 天然野生雪燕

  Natural Wild Tragacanth Gum 'Snow Swallow' or Xue Yan is a gum derived from different varieties of sterculia trees.  It's actually a sap drained from the root of the plant and  the gum dries as it exudes and is then collected.  Once rehydrated will increase to about ten times in size and their white stringy, jelly like strands texture resembles that of the much prized and highly valued bird's nest.  One thing to take note when cooking this dessert is that the gum is highly soluble in water and cannot be boiled too long. Since it is 'cooling' for our internal organs, the elderlies should take this in moderation and not recommended for nursing mums for the breast milk may cause the baby to purge. Snow Swallow Dessert  ~   天然野生雪燕 Ingredients 8 gm Snow Swallow gums 10 gm red dates 10 gm goji berries 20 gm dried longan Rock or piece sugar to taste 1 litre water Pandan leaves (optional) Method Soak the Snow Swallow gums in plenty of water for at least...

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.
