Puffyrazzi's Family Hainanese Chicken Rice Part Two

Hi guys

After a few post on the upcoming elections (tomorrow!!!!! ), i've decided to continue with my family's famed recipe. Here goes the 2nd part :



Back from the previous part, the chicken ought to be put into the fridge after it is cooked. My guess is that this way, the meat will be more supple and the skin has a nice chewy texture. Wow, look at the colour of the chicken, looks divine eh?
.

While the chicken is resting in the fridge, this is what we're gonna do. Stir fry some ginger, garlic and shallots till fragrant in oil.
.

Next, add in uncooked rice along with pandan leaves for a bonus flavour.


After that, transfer the rice into a rice cooker. Instead of using water as normal, use the honest-to-goodness soup left from cooking the chicken. Proceed to cook like normal rice in the rice cooker.
.

Remove the chicken from the fridge and chop them up into smaller pieces for easy consumption. Everything is almost ready to be savoured (or should i say ravaged) by the family now!
.

And here goes the scrumptious dinner for the Wee family. Do not forget to dip the chicken in the home-made ginger sauce. One meal will make you ask for more....
