Step 1: Rice
Always wash rice before cooking, drain off excess water with sieve.
Gas Hob (100g rice with 150g water)
- Bring to boil on medium to high heat. (Take off the lid if the water starts to overspill.)
- Turn down to low, cover with lid and cook until water is fully absorbed. (approximately 10 minutes)
- Turn the gas off and rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
Microwave (100g rice with 200g water)
- Microwave on high for 10 to 15 minutes with no lid
- Take out of the microwave, cover with lid and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 2: Chicken and Sauce (while the rice is resting)
- Add generous amount of oil to a wok/frying pan, add chicken and cook until 80% done (golden brown outside and still a little soft in the middle), take them out the pan and set aside to rest.
- Add a little oil to the same pan and fry the onion over medium heat until they are soft.
- Add chicken and sauce into the pan, continue to cook until chicken is fully cooked.
(For a crispy version of chicken, dust the chicken with a little flour (any type) and cook in a traditional fryer at 180 degrees C until they are crispy and golden brown or follow the instructions on an air fryer to achieve the same result.)
Step 3: Broccoli/ Mixed Vegetables
- Add a little oil to wok or frying pan and place over medium to high heat.
- Add in broccoli/mixed vegetables, season with salt and stir continuously for 1 minute.
- Add a little water just to cover the bottom of the pan and cook with lid on until the broccoli/mixed vegetables are tender.
