With more and more calorie conscious people looking for main entree options , steamed food is the order of the day. My steamer is a constant at my side when cooking light dinners. Fish, Chicken, veggies, momos I love the no fuss procedure.Here is a tasty chicken chilli with the least possible oil.You can cook it without oil as well.
500 gms boneless chicken, 1 egg white, 2 tbsp cornflour, 1 tsp each of finely chopped garlic, ginger and crushed dry red chillies. salt to taste. Mix the egg white , salt and cornflour, add boneless chicken cut into bite size pieces. Cover and keep for 30 mins. Steam for 4 mins on max in a microwave
With a fork separate the chicken pieces which would have coagulated into a lump. Heat a tsp of oil, fry the ginger and then the garlic. add red chilli and 1 cup water. Add in salt and the chicken. stir till the water dries up a bit.
Serve with steamed rice, fried rice, noodles, rotis or bread.
Random musings of lavish meals,happy food memories,delightful discoveries and festive treats.I have been surrounded by gourmets,whose feasts have had me in raptures.I shall endeavor to replicate those gastronomic marvels here.I get my cooking gene from my mother,Annapurna personified,who made every meal a delight.My Dad was responsible for me appreciating tastes from across the globe.A more passionate foodie,I am yet to know.This is my tribute to him.Happy reading,happy cooking and happy eating.
