Another Experiments....

Hi all ....

Wow again I have been awhile for quite long... Well due to some health reason.. Without wasting any time I will be uploading all the post dated & updated pix together with the simple recipes to go along... Hereby, my very own version of Nasi Ayam Penyet aka Smash Chicken wif Chicken Rice. This is dish originated from Indonesia. You can get it @ any indonesian stall in Singapore but unsure in other countries. This dish goes well with the Sayur Asam aka Tamarind Veggie Soup. Actually there's 2 different kinds of version. The one I have here are using Chicken Rice instead of plain rice. Some stall uses Fried Rice instead. There's what most of us confused about. If I get it right, the original version of this indonesian originated dish uses plain rice instead of chicken rice. The key thing in this dish will be the powerful spicy chili & the fragnant spices from the chicken.. Its so yummy..
