Chicken Karaage

Sorry for the lack of post(s) these few weeks because I was pretty busy with a few projects on hand. I would try to get all the draft post(s) published as soon as possible but to compensate, I have invited a few well-known bloggers to guest post(s) some of their home-style dishes and bakes.

Today's let put our hands together and welcome Nami from "Just One Cookbook". I know Nami through her comments on my blog a few months back. From her blog link I also get to know her better as well as exploring her wonderful recipes collection on her home-style Japanese Cuisines. She is also the one who help me to look up recipes on Japanese website regarding the Japanese Steamed Cake which I wish to learn more about it. Today I am so happy to invite Nami to Cuisine Paradise to share her classic “Chicken Karaage” recipe with us and I sure you would like it as much as we do. Enjoy!

Hello readers of Cuisine Paradise! Usually, I’m just the same as you, a fan enjoying Ellena’s delicious creations. She was generous to invite me to contribute a recipe on her site so today I will share one of my family’s favorite Japanese dish, Chicken Karaage (鶏の唐揚げ) recipe. I am a dedicated visitor to Ellena’s site and her mouth watering photos always make me hungry. With her extensive library of recipes from around the world, I learned so much from Ellena and especially Chinese and Southeast Asian cooking techniques. Personally I’ve used multiple recipes from her site to feed my family lunch and dinner and her website has been a great inspirational resource.

Chicken Karaage is a classic Japanese fried chicken dish. It’s a very common Japanese home cooking recipe and many Japanese restaurants including Izakaya (Japanese tapas) offer it in many countries all over the world. You might also find them as a main dish in lunch teishoku (meal set) at restaurants or bento box (lunch box) you buy from Japanese supermarkets. Usually the chicken is marinated in a mix of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and lightly coated with potato/corn starch mix, then finally deep fried. However, each family has different way of preparing it, and here is mine that my family loves.

I hope you enjoy my Chicken Karaage recipe and thank you so much Ellena for having me!



Chicken Karaage



Difficulty: Modearate
Cooking Time: 60 minutes (excluding marinade time)
Makes: 5-8 servings

Ingredients:
5-10 Chicken thigh fillets, cut into 2 inch pieces (make sure each piece is about the same size so it takes about the same amount of time to deep fry.)

Seasonings
¼ onion, grated
½ Tbsp. ginger (1.5 inch ginger), grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 egg yolk
2 Tbsp. cooking sake
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 Tbsp. sesame oil
1 tsp. salt
Freshly ground black pepper

¼ cup corn starch (Please adjust if necessary. If you use 10 chicken thighs, probably about ½ cup)

Oil for deep frying

A couple of lemon wedges
Ichimi Togarashi (Japanese red chili pepper flakes) (optional)
Green onion for garnish (optional)



Directions:
1. Put chicken in a Ziploc bag and combine all the ingredients for Seasonings in a bowl and mix all together.

2. Pour the Seasonings into the Ziploc bag and rub the chicken well with hands. Keep it in the fridge for at least 1 hour, preferably 3-4 hours.

3. In a wok, add oil to about half way full and heat it on medium high heat. When you put a chopstick in the oil and bubbles start to appear around the tip, the oil temperature is now around 180C (356F) and ready for deep frying.

4. When oil is ready, take out the Ziploc bag from the fridge and transfer the chicken into a bowl and discard the marinade (liquid). Then add corn starch and mix quickly. You don’t need to mix it evenly (as you see in the picture below). The uneven coating gives each piece its unique texture.

5. Place each piece of chicken separately into the oil. Do not overcrowd the wok, fry maximum 5 pieces at a time. If you put a lot of chicken in the oil, the temperature will drop quickly and chicken end up absorbing too much oil. Make sure the oil temperature stays around 180C (356F) at all time.

  1. Deep fry for 90 seconds.
  2. Transfer the chicken onto a wire rack (if not, paper towel) to drain the oil for 4 minutes,
  3. Deep fry again for 45 seconds, or until golden brown.

Transfer the chicken onto a wire rack to drain the oil. Before you start the next batch, skim/remove leftover crumbs from the oil in order to keep it clean.

6. Serve the chicken with lemon wedges. Squeeze the lemon right before you eat. You can dip in Ichimi Togarashi if you enjoy spicy chicken.


For more Japanese home-sytle recipes, you can refer to Nami website at Just One Cookbook for more recipe ideas.

[Gyoza Mold Giveaway!!!] 3 Ways of Eating Dumpling or Wonton

Continue from the previous post on the "Steamed Dumplings with Assorted Vegetables". Here I will be giving away a set of "Gyoza Mold" which you can use it to wrap either Japanese Gyoza or Chinese Dumpling/Wonton. This is a handy and easy to use mold by just placing a gyoza or wonton wrapper on top of the press (mold), add in fillings, close and press tight to form a perfect sealed gyoza or dumpling.

If you are interested to win a set of this "Gyoza Mold", just leave your Name and which type of dumpling you prefer (steamed, pan-fried, boiled  or deep-fried) "I love xxxxx" in the comment box and I will pick one TWO Lucky winners on Tuesday, 19 April 2011. Do check the result after Noon, 19 April.


For this Dumpling/Wonton post, I will be sharing another two different ways of cooking dumpling/wonton dish which you could try it out anytime at home. First let's take a look at this "Chicken Dumplings with Chili Oil - 紅油抽手". This is one of the common dumplings dish that you can easily order from most Chinese Ramen and Steamed Bun Restaurants. Usually the ingredients are shrimp and pork mince that are wrapped in thin layer of handmade dumpling skin and serve with the unique spicy chili oil sauce.


CHICKEN DUMPLINGS WITH CHILI OIL - 紅油抽手

Ingredients: (makes 10 Dumplings and 15 Wonton)
150g Mince Chicken Meat
20g Carrot, finely chopped/grated
2 Shallots, finely chopped
3 Fresh Water Chestnut, skin remove and finely chopped
1/2 Tablespoon Chopped Spring Onion

Seasonings:
1/2 Tablespoon Light Soy Sauce
1 Teaspoon Sesame Oil
1 Teaspoon Cooking Wine
Dash of Fish Sauce, optional
Dash of Pepper
1/2 Teaspoon Cornflour



Method:-
1. Put all the ingredients in a medium bowl, mix well with seasonings and marinate in the refrigerate for at least 20 minutes or more.

2. Refer to the photo above, place 1 piece of round dumpling wrapper on the gyoza mold, top with meat fillings, close and press tight to form a perfect sealed dumpling.

3. Repeat the same process and makes about 10 dumplings using the gyoza mold.

4. Next bring a pot of 1.5 litres of water to boil with 1/2 teaspoon of oil. Slowly drop in the wrapped dumplings and cook over medium heat.

5. Once the dumplings float on the surface, lower the heat and continue to simmer for another minute. Remove the cooked dumplings and place it in a bowl of water to stand for another 1 minute.

6. Drain well and place the cooked dumpling in a serving plate. Drizzle some sesame oil then pour over the prepared spicy chili oil and top with some extra chopped spring onion and serve.


I use the Lao Gan Ma(老干妈) Chili Flavoured Oil(油辣椒) which you could purchased from either Sheng Siong(昇菘超市) or any provision shop in the wet market to create this Spicy Sauce for my dumplings.(Price:- range from S$1.95 - S$2.50)

Spicy Chili Oil Ingredients:-
2 Tablespoon of Lao Gan Man Chili Flavoured Oil
80ml Hot Water
1/2 Teaspoon Sugar
1/2 Teaspoon of Vinegar, optional

Method:-
1. Using a microwave safe bowl, reheat the chili flavoured oil on medium heat for about 1 minute or until warm through.

2. Dissolve 1/2 teaspoon of sugar in 80ml of hot water then add it into the prepared chili oil (add vinegar if using) and stir till well combine. Set aside.


Chicken Dumplings With Chili Oil - 紅油抽手



These fried Wontons will definitely be a great finger food or snacks during party or gathering and it goes well with cool icy beer too. You can prepared these ahead by wrapping the dumplings and keep them in the fridge for a few hours or a day before cooking. And these can be a very addictive finger food too... so beware!


DEEP-DRIED WONTONS

Method:-
1. Prepare the same fillings using the above ingredients shown for the dumplings.

2. Refer to the photo above, place about 1 teaspoon of meat filling in the middle of the square wonton wrapper.

3. Brush some water on the top 2 corner of the wrapper, fold it into half to form a triangle.  Pull the 2 edge below to form a diamond shape by sticking the two edge together.

4. Repeat the process to make about 7 Triangles and Diamond shape wontons.

5. Preheat a pot of oil and deep-fried the prepared wonton on medium heat till golden brown, remove and drain well.

6. Serve with desire dipping sauce.


With a little effort done, you can whipped out two homecook dishes by just using one prepared meat fillings. Isn't this wonderful! I am sure your family will loves these quick and simple dish. If spicy food is not your choice, you can always replace it with just light soy sauce.

Non-Spicy Sauce Ingredients:
3/4 Tablespoon of Light Soy Sauce
80ml Hot Water
1/2 Teaspoon Sesame Oil

Method:-
1. Mix all the ingredients together and pour over to the cooked dumplings.

Chicken And Mushroom Salad Cups using YIFON Bottled Mushrooms plus Recipe Booklets

From a glance at this photo does it reminds you on something similar to the "Nonya Kueh Pie Tee" which is usually filled with shredded turnips, carrot, hard boiled egg, chopped peanuts and etc. Here instead of  using the traditional Kueh Pie Tee shells, I replaced it with "Sui Gow Wrappers" that are baked in mini muffin tray to form a small shell cases.

With a twist from the traditional way of making Kueh Pie Tee, I used boiled shredded chicken breast meat with some YIFON bottled mushroom, tossed the mixtures together using some refreshing lime juice, cut chili and chopped peanuts.

Vietnamese Spring Roll (Gỏi cuốn)

In Vietnam there is a non-fried and refreshing spring roll known as "Gỏi cuốn" which include ingredients such as boiled or fried pork, shrimp, chicken, fresh herbs, lettuce, cucumber, rice vermicelli and etc. All the ingredients are all wrapped in moistened rice paper and eaten with a cold dipping sauce.

Here is my version of preparing this Vietnamese Spring Roll using cooked prawns, vegetables and fresh herbs.

Ingredients: (makes 6 rolls)
6 Sheets of Large Vietnamese Rice Paper
12 Medium Cooked Prawns, shell removed
1/2 Medium Carrot, peeled and julienned
1 Small Japanese Cucumber, peeled and julienned
24 Mint Leaves
Handful of Thai Basil Leaves
Some Lettuce Leaves, tear into small portion




Method:-
1. Fill a large dish or bowl with warm water, soak each sheet of rice paper for a second or two then transfer to a slightly damp cotton dish towel.

2. To assemble, arrange 2 cooked prawns, carrot, cucumber, lettuce, 2 mint leaves and some basil leaves at about 1/3 of the way from the edge nearest you.(refer to the photo above)

3. Roll from the edge nearest you and tuck in the sides as you go near to the other end. Carefully not to tear the wrapper with too much strength.

4. Serve whole or diagonally cut in half with dipping sauce.


There are a few ways to prepare this dipping sauce for the Vietnamese Spring Roll but here we love this version without minced garlic and instead I add in some chopped peanuts to enhance the flavour and texture.

Ingredients For Dipping Sauce:
2 Tablespoon Lime Juice
1 Tablespoon of Fish Sauce
60ml Hot Water
1 Teaspoon of Caster/Brown Sugar
1 Small Red Chili, seeds removed and slices
1 Small Green Chili, seeds removed and slices
1/2 Tablespoon of Chopped Peanut, optional


Method:-
1. Whisk together all ingredients until sugar is dissolved. Set aside.


Although this might seems a bit troublesome to prepare as it used many ingredients as an appetizer or salad but trying it can be worth for getting away with our usual food routine. For this you can use all kind of vegetables according to your preference and if you do not like the taste of raw herbs, you can omit them in this recipe too. Moreover eating this Vietnamese Spring Rolls can be lots of fun too as you can mix and match the ingredients, wrap it and enjoy a light and refreshing meal while chatting with group of friends around the table.

CP Thai Shrimp Cake

Recently I got a pack of CP Thai Shrimp Cake (泰式虾饼) which I was wondering what I could do with it. And with my busy schedules I would prefer something quick and easy rather than sweating in the kitchen. So here are some quick ways on how I have make use of these delicious shrimp cake to whip up simple dishes to satisfy our hungry appetite in the shortest time.

First let's look at these yummy snacks; you don't even need more than 10 minutes to prepare them before you could enjoy these soft and fragrant Thai shrimp cake bun anytime of the day even on weekday breakfast. All you need is to get the necessary ingredients ready on the night before so that you could save some time on waking up earlier to prepare the ingredients.

For those who are tired of having the usual coffee and bread for breakfast, why not give this a try and you can even add in some lettuce and tomato to make it healthier too.

Ingredients: (makes 4 buns)
4 Plain Leaf Bun
8 -12 Pieces of CP Thai Shrimp Cake
1 Medium Tomato, thinly slices
Some Lettuce Leaves

Method:
1. Steam the leaf bun together with shrimp cakes on the same plate for about 5 minutes, remove from heat and set side.
2. To assemble them, slowly peel open the leaf bun, place some lettuce leave and a slice of tomato then sandwich it with 2 - 3 pieces of shrimp cakes.
3. You can also drizzle some chilli sauce (recipe shown below) over it and serve immediately.


Drizzling Sauce: (optional)
1 1/2 Tablespoon Thai Sweet Chilli Sauce
1 Teaspoon Hot Water
1 Shallot, thinly slices
1 Small Chili, remove seeds & chopped

Method:
1. Mixed all the above ingredients together and served as dipping sauce or drizzle on the fillings.

Note:
~ Drizzling Sauce can be prepared overnight.


Want some quick and easy finger food within 3 minutes to pair with your fried rice, bee hoon or instant noodles? Or you are looking for some authentic party food to impress your guests. No matter what is your intention, I am sure these mini CP Thai Shrimp Cakes would always come in handy for all occasions.

All you need to do is just toast them in oven toaster for 5 - 8 minutes or for a faster alternative, microwave them for 2 - 3 minutes on medum high depending on your microwave power(watt).


Or if you are looking for something more filling for lunch or dinner maybe you can consider using these shrimp cake to whip out some fried rice together with egg and vegetable. I can be assured that you would be surprised on how tasty these shrimp cake can tranform the plain rice into an "Egg-wrapped Fried Rice" dish in less than 30 minutes.

Don't worry if you cannot make a nice egg sheet to wrap the rice, you could always mix and match the ingredients to suit your preference and time limit. If egg wrap don’t work well for you, try adding it into the rice itself to make normal fried rice with egg. Here are some ingredients and steps for my “Egg-wrapped Fried Rice” dish: -

Ingredients: (serve 1 - 2)
1 Rice Bowl of Cooked Rice
5 pieces of CP Thai Shrimp Cake
2 Medium Egg, lightly whisk
1 Tablespoon of Green Bean/Mixed Vegetables
2 Cloves Garlic, finely minced
Dash of Thai Fish Sauce/Light Sauce Sauce




Method:
1. Cut the shrimp cakes into small portions (about 6 rectangles per piece), set aside.
2. Pre-heat the frying pan with 1/2 Tablespoon of oil, slowly pour in the egg mixture and give it a swirl around the pan so that the egg mixture is evenly spread out.
3. Fry the egg sheet on low heat till slightly brown, slowly loosen the side of the egg sheet and flip it over with a spatula and cook the other side till done.
4. Remove and set it over a small rice bowl while preparing the fried rice.
5. Add in another 1/2 tablespoon of oil add in the shrimp cakes pieces and give it a quick stir for about 30 seconds, dish up.
6. Next sauté the minced garlic for a few second then drop in the green bean and continue to fry for another 30 second or till the garlic turned slightly brown.
7. Pour in the cooked rice, increase the heat to medium then use a spatula to loosen the rice so that it would be grainy instead of lumpy.
8. When the rice is almost done, add in the shrimp cake and dash of fish sauce to season the rice.
9. Remove from heat and spoon the rice evenly into the egg sheet bowl, fill the fried rice to the rim of the bowl and tuck in the sides of the egg sheet to form a bowl.
10. Over turn the egg wrapped bowl onto serving plate, decorate it with some garnish and served immediately.

Note:
~ You can cooked the rice the night before or early in the morning if you are preparing this for lunch or dinner.

For a quick snack or lunch meal for kids, perhaps you can add in some shredded mozzarella cheese to do a cheesy bake rice for them. I am sure they would finished the bowl of rice without fuss and ask for second helping too.

To prepare this dish, you could use the same fried rice shown above by increasing the quantity and dish up some portion to bake it with cheese for your kids. Or you can always served two different flavour of this dish so that each one of the family members could get a chance to taste both of these dishes.

Ingredients:
Some Shrimp Cake Fried Rice
Decent amount of Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Dash of Ground Pepper




Method:
1. Place a layer of shrimp cake fried rice in the baking dish and topped it evenly with some mozzarella cheese.
2. Next place the 2nd layer of fried rice on top and continue with some generous amount of cheese again.
3. Put the baking dish into oven toaster and bake for about 5 minutes till the cheese is bubbling and the colour turns golden brown.
4. Removed from oven, served hot with dash of ground pepper.


As you have notice from the packaging it shows that these CP Thai Shrimp Cake are well seasoned with Thai Chilli paste and it is made with 70% shrimp which are raised at CP's eco-friendly farms in Thailand. And most importantly this product contains 0g Trans Fat and has no preservatives used. Overall I love its slightly spicy and refreshing taste especially the "Kaffir Lime Leaf" that is infused in these shrimp cake. This special lime fragrant makes makes it very appetising on each bites. And for your informatin, you can easily find these shrimp cake at the frozen food department of any local supermarkets.
Price: S$4.95 each packet (260g)

Lastly I would like to thanks Melvin of Vibes Communications Pte Ltd and CP (Charoen Pokphand) Food for the invitation to try out some of their products. And I would also like to share with you some other quick and easy dishes from those CP Food that I received in some upcoming posts too.
