red wine chicken

my mama is a fuchow, so she makes really yummy red wine chicken (ng chow gie) 红酒鸡. However, i hate mee sua in soups, it has to be fried, no soup. Everytime she makes that dish, i'll have mine with bee hoon instead :-)

So mama hasn't been in the culinary scene for a long time. She is now almost 85 years old & does not cook anymore. Not only that, even if she wanted to make the red wine chicken, we don't have the wine lees!!!

My Ah Ma used to make really yummy red wine & give the lees to my mama. But my ah ma has stopped. Hence, it has been ages since we last had red wine chicken. Until...... we got a new supplier!!!! hahahha, no telling cos then we won't be the only special ppl around who can taste this yummy fuchow dish ^_^v


my bee hoon


the red wine chicken soup :)


the red bee hoon - bloody bee hoon, lol


the yummy dish :-)


the soup is made from red rice wine lees, sesame oil, onions, mushrooms, ginger & chicken. Pour some red fuchow wine over before eating. this is good for confinement & birthdays :) i like the birthday version cos mama will put 2 hard boiled eggs into the mee sua ^_^ i like eggs!!!
