Steamed Chicken Wings


Never given any attention to identify which are the dishes that belongs to Selangor or Kuala Lumpur food.  So long as the food  at these places are good and yummy, nothing matters.  By chance, I saw this book Rasa Malaysia by Betty Saw which categorised the recipes according to various states of Malaysia.  

This is one of the dishes which was under Selangor food category that looks good,  yet easy to prepare.  Just marinate the chicken wings and steam to cook. 

This steamed chicken is very aromatic, fragrant and the gravy is yummylicious.  Nice with plain white rice.

Ingredients
6 chicken wings - end tip removed and cut at the joint
2 dried mushrooms - soaked and cut strips
1 red chilli
some chopped coriander leaves and spring onions
1 tbsp oil
Marinating Sauce
1 tbsp each of light soy sauce and oyster sauce
1 tsp dark soy sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 tsp cornflour
2.5 cm ginger - scrape skin and chopped finely [I juliened the ginger]
  1. Wash chicken wings and drain dry.  Marinate with marinating sauce for at least an hour.
  2. Place marinated chicken wings, red chilli and mushrooms in a steaming plate and steam over high heat for 12 minutes.
  3. Remove and garnish with chopped coriander leaves and spring onions.
  4. Serve immediately.

  11. Hi Zoe, yes this dish is good in every sense. Honestly, you can't get to enjoy this outside the home for that price. Moreover, I make sure all the feather roots and excess fats were removed.
