Time 1h

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 (4 pound) whole chicken
3 cloves garlic
2 (1 inch) pieces fresh ginger root, peeled
2 green onions
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sesame oil
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 shallots, finely chopped
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger root, peeled and chopped
½ cup chopped cilantro
4 cups chicken stock
½ teaspoon salt
3 cups long grain rice, rinsed and drained
cilantro sprigs
sliced green onion
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
2 fresh tomatoes, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Crush 3 cloves of garlic and 2 pieces of ginger, and place them into the cavity of the chicken. Tie the green onions into a knot, and place them into the chicken along with 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Carefully submerge the chicken breast side down into the water.
  • Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let stand covered for 40 minutes, turning the chicken over half way through.
  • While the chicken is cooking, heat the vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Fry the shallots, ginger, and garlic in the oil until fragrant. Add cilantro and rice, and cook, stirring until toasted. Pour in chicken stock and season with salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until rice is tender and 'steam holes' appear in the surface of the rice, about 20 minutes.
  • When the chicken is done cooking, remove it from the pot, and place under cold running water to tighten the skin. Rub the outside with sesame oil, and chop into pieces. Place pieces on a serving platter, and garnish with cilantro, green onion, cucumber and tomato. Serve with rice.

MY SINGAPORE-STYLE FRIED RICE



My Singapore-style fried rice image

There are so many variations on this wonderful dish - for me, it's all about sumptuous fluffy rice with tang and seasoning. Classically there'd be some sort of smoky ribs or ham in the mix, but you can use the principle of this recipe to suit what you've got in the fridge and, of course, you can go veggie if you want to. It's brilliant for embracing odds and ends from your veg drawer, and hopefully will help you to eat the rainbow. As with most stir-fries, this one is all in the prep, setting you up for fast and efficient cooking. You can absolutely make more portions, but it's best to cook them no more than 2 portions at a time.

Time 25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

150 g brown or basmati rice
320 g crunchy veg, such as asparagus, baby corn, broccoli, leek, Chinese, red or white cabbage, pak choi, carrot
1 clove of garlic
2 cm piece of ginger
1 large free-range egg
olive oil
1 chipolata
1 rasher of smoked streaky bacon
4 fresh or frozen raw peeled prawns
1 teaspoon tikka paste
1 tablespoon low-salt soy sauce
1 teaspoon mixed seeds
1 teaspoon chilli jam

Steps:

  • Cook the rice according to the packet instructions, then drain and leave to cool. If you spread it across a plate, it will cool more quickly.
  • Now prep the veg - chop everything into strips or chunks that are about the same size so it will be a pleasure to eat. Chop asparagus spears into 2cm lengths, halve or quarter baby corn, matchstick the carrot, and shred up cabbage - you get the idea.
  • Peel and finely slice the garlic. Peel and finely chop or grate the ginger.
  • Put a large non-stick frying pan or wok on a medium-high heat.
  • Beat the egg. Put 1 teaspoon of olive oil into the hot pan, then pour in the egg, swirling it around the pan to cover the base, essentially like a thin egg pancake. Let it cook through, then ease out of the pan with a spatula, roll it up and finely slice.
  • Put ½ a tablespoon of olive oil into the hot pan. Finely slice the sausage and bacon, then add to the pan. Stir-fry until golden, then go in with the prawns, garlic and ginger.
  • Stir in the curry paste until everything is coated, then start adding your veg, getting stuff that needs a bit longer in there first like carrots and leek. Keep stirring or tossing and adding the veg until it's all in there.
  • Mix in the cool rice and stir-fry until it's hot through and the veg are just cooked.
  • Add the soy, then toss in the egg ribbons.
  • Divide between your plates, sprinkle over the seeds, season to perfection with more soy if you like, and finish with a drizzle of chilli jam. Eat right away - heaven!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 pound ground pork
Kosher salt
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup shredded carrot
1/4 cup diced red onion
2 teaspoons Asian fish sauce
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
3 cups cold cooked long grain white rice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat and then swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil. When the oil begins to smoke, add the egg and swirl the skillet to make a flat egg pancake that's only half set, about 10 seconds; scoop out onto a plate.
  • Add the pork to the skillet, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring constantly and breaking up any clumps, until brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining tablespoon oil, then add the bell pepper, carrot, onion, fish sauce, curry powder, garlic, ginger and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add the rice, stirring to break up any clumps, and spread it out in the skillet. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Return the egg, pork and any juices to the skillet and cook, stirring and breaking up the egg, to mix it in thoroughly, about 1 minute. Season with additional salt if needed. Stir in the cilantro and serve.

  • Bring the water to a boil: Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through.
  • Fluff the rice with a fork: Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork to separate the grains.
