Took a day off yesterday to clear my year-end leaves. Went for my usual antenatal checkup at the hospital and cooked dinner.
On the way back after checkup, tapau-ed wantan mee, roasted duck drumstick and roasted pork. Yummy. Went to the mini-mart to buy some ingredients to cook dinner. Did some housework, napped, picked up Kz earlier than usual from the nanny's and cooked dinner. I cooked salted egg butter chicken and ikan bilis spinach. There was soup from mil too (since last Saturday).
Simple salted egg butter chicken recipe, my version:
Chicken thigh/breast cut into pieces and marinated in: [1 tbsp flour, 1 tbsp custard powder, 1 tbsp corn starch, 1/2 tbsp salt]
3 salted egg, boiled and only mash the yolks
2 stalks curry leaves
6-8 cili padi
1/4 cup evaporated milk (I used Carnation)
1 heap tbsp butter
1 tbsp cooking oil
Fry chicken pieces until brownish, put aside. In another wok, fry curry leaves and cili padi in butter and oil. Add evaporated milk. Put in the mashed yolks and stir until the gravy turns yellow. Put in the pre-fried chicken pieces and mix everything together until every pieces is coated with gravy and egg yolk. Serve hot.
