EZCR#75 - MUA EU CHICKEN WITH ERYNGII MUSHROOMS

This is a good sesame oil flavoured chicken to try if you love to eat Mua Eu Kay [Sesame Oil Fried Chicken] but do not want to eat all chicken meat.  Just add a packet of eryngii mushrooms to only one chicken whole leg and there you have it.  You can also use this recipe to prepare Sesame Oil Chicken Rice [Mua Eu Kay Fun] to serve as a One Dish Meal.
The chicken and mushrooms are as tasty and delicious well coated with thick sesame flavor [if you use good quality sesame seed oil] and natural sweetness of the other ingredients.

Recipe inspired by and adapted from Chinese TV Cook Show - Cooking So Easy
Ingredients
1 chicken whole leg [with or without skin or bones] – cut bite size pieces
1 packet fresh Eryngii mushrooms [about 200gm] – sliced 1 cm thick
30 gm ginger – sliced
2-3 tbsp sesame seed oil
Seasoning
1 tbsp wine
¼-½ tsp salt
¼ tsp dark soy sauce
¼ tsp sugar
Some water
  1. Heat up a non-stick wok, dry fry ginger slices until fragrant then add in the sesame oil.  Continue to fry until edges of the ginger slices are brown and aromatic.
  2. Add in the chicken and mushrooms, leave to cook until slightly brown and aromatic.  Add in seasoning, mix well then add in some water.  Bring to boil and leave to simmer until sauce is thick.
  3. Dish up to serve.

  1. Kimmy, this is one of my favorite dishes! Mua Eu Kay for me anytime with hot steaming rice. My mum likes to put shiitake mushrooms. I must try it with eryngii one day.
