made braised belly pork with carrots & cabbage for teban gardens community breakfast this morning on 24.8.2018.^^
this my 69th friday breakfast community meal dish at teban gardens community service centre.
i first started doing a community meal dish for teban gardens CSC on 8.1.2016.
the centre was started in 2002 after much effort & challenge by our RI friend who is a pastor of pasir panjang hill brethren church (pphbc) which owns & runs the CSC.
i thought of doing minced pork with egg plants 鱼香茄子煲 this week, but thought better. need to experiment myself on a small dish first before trying out for 140pax.
revert back to boneless chicken legs, defrosted, filleted, drained & then marinated with 3tbsp fish sauce, 1tbsp heap corn flour, 1tbsp sesame oil, 1tbsp heap oyster sauce & 3 tbsp huatiao wine in fridge overnight.
this morning got up at 7am as usual.
fried chicken with cut ginger & chilli padi in chicken fat. stir fried thoroughly in wok, then covered & cooked, must not overcooked so it is very tender, tasty, smooth (becos of cornflour). removed chicken.
fried carrots, onions, leek for 10mins.
drained the chicken gravy back to the wok & added cut potatoes. cooked for another 10mins (anyway tested potatoes, just cooked & broke when pressed against the side).
then returned chicken to wok & mixed thoroughly.
plated it to the aluminium carrier.
a really delectable dish, great colours & wonderful taste.
