Hello everyone this is Amanda Tastes
I'm going to make chicken stew today
The main ingredients of this stew is chicken, vegetable
and grilled rice cake
You can enjoy this dish during this cold season
This is a special stew for lazy people
You don't need
any other side dishes
I'll make a dough first
This might be the most important part of this dish
Add salt to medium flour
and pour water in the mixture
Please stir at the same time
Water is about half amount of medium flour
and mix them well
It doesn't have to be very nice
You can just knead it until there is no clogged flour
Wrap it with plastic wrap
Prepare other ingredients
Cut the chicken
I used half of the chicken (600g)
It tastes better when you use male chicken
It's much easier to cut the chicken
with scissors than knife
Cut spring onion, garlic, and ginger
I recommend you to
use iron pot
It will give the food much more scent
Add generous amount of oil
and some garlic
Heat it over low heat
and put the chicken out
when it turns gold
Do not crush the garlic
until you put it out
because we're going to use it later
And add
spring onion, ginger, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaf, and dried pepper in the oil
Stir fry them until the scent comes out of them
and cook it with the chicken
Add some sugar in it
The color of the chicken will look nice
When you cook until the skin of the chicken gets yellow
you can smell the scent
Put chestnut
and also add cooking wine, cooking soy sauce, oyster sauce, and strong soy sauce
Add boiled water
until all the ingredients can sink into the water
Close the lid and cook it for 20~30 minutes
I'll make rice cake
while I'm waiting for the stew
The fermented dough got softer
Knead it for a few times
and cut it into 12 pieces
Cut it like a cross first
and cut into 3 parts of each of the piece
Make it look
like a circle
Please put the doughs
into the water
It will not going to melt
Just leave it in the water
In this way, the dough will soak up the water
and it won't harden when you grill the rice cake
I cooked it for 20~30 minutes
but it is not done yet
I guess the soup got a little salty
Add some salt
to season the stew
There's a little amount of soup right now
Please add more water
until all the ingredients get soaked
and spread the rice cake
nice and flat
Make an oval shape
The dough is tender so it is easy to shape it
Stick it in the pot
like this
in the stew
and roll it around
When the dough goes into the soup, it'll soak up a lot of soup
so you have to put a lot of water
Reduce to low heat and close the lid
Boil it for about 15 minutes
and half of the rice cake that we sticked
will get cooked inside the stew
and the other half will get cooked in the air
While you're waiting
decorate it with pepper and garlic stem
I grow them by myself
so I got it from my farm
The pepper is not completely matured
but I think I can use it now
Cut the garlic stem
I think 15 minutes have passed
and the soup got reduced too
Don't forget the fried garlic
and add all of them in the soup
Place them in the soup
The rice cakes can be at the top
but it looks much nicer when it's inside the soup
so I rearranged them
Put the vegetables from the farm
Turn off the light
and spread the garlic stem
And the last but not least
is my homemade pepper oil
I used it before
Do you remember?
This kind of pepper oil is really useful
You can add 2 spoons of the oil
and it tastes much better
You can enjoy it now
It's better to eat it straight from the dish
than putting it into another bowl
The chicken got cooked well
and the stew got thicker too
Rice cake is soft and contains a lot of stew
but the side that got sticked to the stew is crispy
and the homemade pepper oil is really nice too
Doesn't it look better
than the ones in restaurants?
Please try this at home! It's wonderful!
This is the end of my video
and the most important part of this dish is the rice cakes
I recommend this for those who like chicken
