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.

 

INGREDIENTS

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

METHOD

1. Cut the chicken wings in half and cut the potatoes into strips.

2. Marinade the chicken wings with light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt, and pepper for one hour.

3. Heat the oil in a deep bottom wok, fry the potato strips on a medium heat until slightly golden brown. Set it aside.

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!!

Ondeh-Ondeh in 3 flavour (椰丝球)

Today made a popular dessert in Malaysia, “Ondeh Ondeh”, a type of Nyonya recipe. It is also called “Buah Melaka” because it looks like the fruit of the Malacca tree. The procedure of making is easy. The flavoured glutinous rice balls have grated fresh coconut on the outside and melting Gula Melaka, or palm sugar, inside. The white, milky coconut shreds and little balls of various colours appear fresh and natural. and has a charming appearance. The glutinous rice balls, soft glutinous and chewy are determined by the amount of water and cooking time. The softer the rice balls, the more water and more time it boiled. We like our coconut shreds to be moist and crisp, the melted Gula Melaka to be rich and flavorful, and the texture to be somewhat mushy and sticky. It seems like the nostalgic flavour of my childhood is returning. In addition to the traditional pandan flavour, I have included instructions for making it with sweet potatoes and pumpkin. Of all the flavours of "ondeh...

Half a year has flown by in the blink of an eye, and it's almost Mid-Autumn Festival. It is fall in October this year. I've tried quite a few of jelly mooncakes last year. So, this year I am going to share some of jelly mooncakes that I love. Making jelly mooncakes isn't difficult, and I'm always eagerly anticipating the finished product, because there are always so many surprises when I cut into it. I got the inspiration from an Indonesian dessert “lumut” pudding. Puding Lumut or “moss pudding is a type of jelly or jelly pudding originating from Indonesia, make with a mixture of agar-agar powder, eggs, coconut milk and sugar which is cooked until it forms a moss like mass. Today I am going to transform it into a mooncake.   Other than the beautiful moss from cooking and stirring the mixture. The white layer part that looks like shredded coconut which is actually made from the mixture of agar powder, fresh coconut water and coconut milk. Grate it after it is set...

Braised Pork Belly Char Siu on Stove

  Grilling char Siu is time-consuming? Yes, indeed!! The marinating and cooking steps involved in grilling char Siu might take a lot of time.   In order to allow the flavors to seep into the meat, the traditional process involves marinating the pork for a few hours, often overnight.   Additionally, grilling might take some time, particularly if you want that distinctive char. And also create a crispy surface and smoky flavor. You might say can make char siu, or Chinese BBQ pork with oven baking, or air frying. Oven baking produces an excellent crust and a balance of juiciness. Air fryer is the quickest way to produce a crispy outside and a soft within, although it might not cook as uniformly as oven baking. Today I am sharing a super easy stove top version. You even get a lovely sauce to go with it, and the results are just incredible. It lacks charred or roasted flavor of charcoal because it is cooked entirely on the hob.   Trust me, this method is definitely ...
