When I starting fourth dimension saw this recipe.... I asked myself, how overnice tin flame this be?
Then every bit I intend nearly it, I remembered how my mom used to position steamed chicken juices onto our rice, together with it was heavenly. No fancy seasoning, together with the chicken was exclusively rubbed amongst roughly tabular array salt together with steamed.
Now... I roughly know what it tastes like.
But to convey flavourful chicken juices, I must instruct a adept chicken. I bought one-half a Naked Neck, locally known every bit "gong geng gai" inwards Cantonese, or y'all tin flame instruct a "woo sou gai" of which I don't know the proper English linguistic communication request this bearded chicken. but both chicken breeds are known to convey ameliorate meat than regular farmed chickens.
I made 8 parcels. My girls each had 1 together with they thoroughly enjoyed dinner, together with fifty-fifty complimented me verbally, LOL. My man child took one-half together with my wife together with I walloped the rest. Served amongst roughly acar of which.I find, ruined the whole affair because the rice has such a frail flavour. I totally loved how the rice gustatory modality together with smells like. But if y'all prefer rigid flavours, y'all mightiness discovery this..... bland.
Now, I desire to laissez passer myself a pat on the back. I cooked rice on the stove function past times inwards a pot without burning, LOL. I convey ever marveled at people who could create that. Finally I could. Well, y'all don't convey to create it similar me. You tin flame usage a rice cooker, something of which I don't have. And for once, I desire to challenge myself non to usage the microwave. :-) Just homecoming roughly fatty from the chicken earlier y'all create the rice inwards your rice cooker together with it volition gustatory modality marvelous.
I can't instruct simpur or tarap leaves here, together with then I had to brand create amongst banana leaves. If y'all convey ever preferred banana leafage wrapped nasi lemak, I intend y'all volition relish this exceptional uncomplicated chicken rice too. The leaves add together a novel dimension to the adept one-time chicken rice that nosotros are then familiar with.
Oh yes, I don't know the origins of this dish, every bit inwards from which tribe, because the recipe source never mentioned nearly it. Let me know if y'all create :-)
