I have been eating out very often, and I miss home-cooked food very much.

By following a recipe book, you can whip out an awesome Kam Heong Chicken too!

My signature dish from now on. ^_^v

If I can do it, you can do it too!

kam heong chicken ingredients

Ingredients:

i. Pieces of chicken, best to use chicken thighs. There are about 9 pieces of chicken here. Marinate the chicken for 30 mins, I used a small spoon of salt + black pepper powder.
ii. Curry leaves
iii. Dried shrimps (chopped into smaller pieces)
iv. Pounded small red onions (about 7 pcs)
v.Chopped garlic (about 6 pcs)

The main super star – the sauce.

I don’t really have an exact measurement of amount, but you can go by heart too. Here I used (for 9 pcs of chicken)

i. 2 tablespoons of meat curry powder
ii. 1.5 tablespoons of oyster sauce
iii. 1 tablespoon of light soysauce
iv. 0.5 tablespoons of sugar
v. 1 tablespoon of dark soysauce

Mix the sauce.

Ok, now you are ready to go.

fry chicken

Heat up some oil in the wok, then dump in the chicken. I coated the chicken with some corn flour to avoid oil splattering out from the wok.

fried chicken

Fried the chicken till light golden brown. At this time, it is actually 99% cooked already. :)

dried shrimps

Then, heat up some oil again and dump in the dry shrimps.

Warning! Dry shrimps will jump everywhere now, be VERY careful not to scald yourself. 

frying ingredients

Then, throw in onions and garlic, stir fry for a while and then curry leave, and finally the sauce.

Lastly, throw in the chicken to fry a little more and make sure the chicken is fully coated with the sauce.

Serve.
