Chicken Rice (Nasi Ayam senang gilos)

Whenever I've had no onion left in the kitchen, I could only think of 1 menu - Chicken Rice (Nasi Ayam). It only requires ginger and garlic and chicken of course :). The rest are just side garnish. It won't spoil the Chicken Rice taste if you don't have it. Lets look at the recipe:


Ingredients:

4 cups rice
1 whole small chicken - cut into 4 pieces
1 1/2 bulb garlic
3 inch ginger
4 red chillies
3-4 red tomatoes
celery
Cucumber
Lettuce
black soy sauce
Salt
lemon juice
Water




Methods:

Grind garlic and ginger and set aside. Put in chicken in a pot. Pour in water and cooked. Add in 1/2 of the grounded ginger and garlic. Add in salt. Let the water boil and chicken to cook. Take out the cooked chicken and set aside.

Wash the rice and put it in the cooker. Pour in the chicken soup that you have prepared earlier - just enough to cook the rice. Add in 1-2 teaspoon of grounded garlic and ginger in the cooker and stir. Let the rice cook in the cooker by itself.

Grind the red chillies, tomatoes and 2 teaspoons of grounded ginger and garlic. Then, pour it into a pot and cook it for a while. Add in sugar, salt and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Upon boiling, the chilli is ready to be served.

Add the rest of the grounded ginger and garlic onto the chicken. Spill black soy sauce and mix them all. Broil the chicken in the oven for 10-15 minutes. You may also fry the chicken. I prefer baking it in the oven as the ingredients will absorb better.

To make the soup more tastier, add in chopped celery and let it boil again. Serve hot.

To garnish the chicken, you may use tomatoes, cucumber and lettuce.

Happy trying :)
