Cumin Chicken Wings and Potatoes Bite


Many people have an indescribable liking for potatoes and chicken as a meal. When I have nothing to do, I will think about how to cook potatoes and chicken to turn out another delicious dish. Potatoes and chicken are always a perfect match, but I am getting tired of cooking braised chicken potatoes or curry potatoes chicken. 

I am trying a twice cooked method for this time, and it is a super easy dish. I am using chicken wings for this dish. I’m using the middle part of the wings, also known as flats or wingette, and save the drumettes for another dish.

Cumin powder serves as an essential ingredient for this dish.  The primary ingredients in cumin powder include cumin, star anise, cinnamon, and other spices. Cumin powder has a distinct flavour and an intense aroma. It is mainly used as seasoning. Whether it is used to season chicken or ribs, cumin powder has a pleasant flavour. This cumin chicken wings potatoes bite dish is quite straightforward, and both the presentation and flavour are excellent.

I cut the wings in half because it would be easier to marinate and fry them this way. Potatoes are cut into strips the same size as the wings, fry until golden on both sides, removed. And then fry the marinated chicken wings until golden. Cook them twice, to let it coat with spicy chili sauce, white sesame seeds and cumin powder, and it will burst into fragrance when you bite it. It is so delicious that you will lick your fingers. Who would not want that for a meal. The potatoes are soft and glutinous, while the chicken wings are charred on the outside and tender on the inside. Perfect for snacking or serving it over rice for dinner.

20 chicken wings

2 potatoes

2 tsp light soy sauce

2 tsp dark soy sauce

1 tsp salt

½ tsp pepper

1 tbsp minced garlic

1 tbsp white sesame seed

2 tsp cumin powder

4. Fried the chicken wings with the remaining oil in the wok, over medium heat until the chicken wings are browned, charred on the outside and tender on the inside. Set it aside.

5. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, then return the potato strips and chicken wings to the wok and stir fry together. Add in the white sesame seed, and cumin powder, stir fry again until all the ingredients are well combined.

6. Garnished with some sliced chilies and chopped coriander leaves, ENJOY!!

Easy Apple Tart With Almond Cream

This apple tarts made with frangipane or almond cream, and apples. It’s delicate, beautiful, and most importantly, delicious. The combination of apples, almonds, and cinnamon creates a warm and delightful dessert. Excellent while still warm from the oven, at room temperature, or even cold. The tart itself is buttery and crunchy. It is simple to make, and you don’t need a food processor or hand mixer. The key is that the butter is COLD. I cut it into small cubes and keep it in a freezer for 10 minutes which is much simpler to incorporate into the flour mixture. The almond cream or Frangipane is simple to prepare, and you can make it a day ahead with only a few ingredients. Spread the almond cream over the prebaked pie crust which adds a wonderful flavor, but it also acts as a shield to prevent the apple juices from penetrating into the crust. I am using a 24cm round and removable pie try or tart pan for making this apple tart. It is one of the staple pieces of equipment in my kitc...

Nyonya Sticky Rice Dumplings

This is my version of Nyonya Zongzi. The taste is very different from salty meat Zongzi. When the first time I taste it, it is incredibly tasty, it’s slightly spicy but not too sweet. It has a strong spice flavor due to the fact that of using whole coriander and white peppercorns which were toasted and grinded into powder form. The biggest difference between the regular Zongzi and Nyonya Zongzi is in the filling -- one’s savory while the other's sweet. The regular salty Zongzi normally includes pork belly in a big piece, mushrooms, dried shrimp, chestnuts and salted duck eggs. And include a lit bit of five spice powder for some fragrance. The Nyonya Zongzi includes braised minced pork, dried shrimps, candied winter melon, and the strong spice from the whole grinded coriander seeds and white peppercorns is the key to the greatest flavor. And it comes with a blend of sweet and savory, with aromatic spice notes and a hint of sweetness. The blue and off-white appearance with a ...

Crispy Fried Noodles Meatballs With Sweet Chili Sauce

I don’t want to blow my own horn, but I’m determined to do everything I can to make you want to try these meatballs. These meatballs are coated with SWEET CHILLI LIME SAUCE. The sweet chili paste is the major component of making the sauce. Apart from using this paste to make the sauce for the meatballs. You can also use it for other dishes like stir-fries with French beans, spread over cucumber or bread, or sometimes use it to pair with fried noodles. The paste itself is sweet with some spiciness. I am using two types of dried chilies to make the paste, one type is mild, and the type is extremely hot dried chilies. Bear in mind that the smaller they are, the hotter they are. My meatballs contain glass noodles inside and outside of them. If you're not familiar with the idea of adding noodles to meatballs, let me convince you as to why it's a great idea. The noodles get crispy outside after frying.   So, you don’t need to mess up with panko or any other breading. Glass nood...
