Braised Chicken Feet with Mushroom
香菇焖鸡脚




This is the most adult dish that my son likes. However, he does not like the smell of the spices, so I don’t usually put it if he is eating.

Ingredients:
  • 30 chicken feet
  • 20 pieces of mushroom (I’m using small ones)
  • Hard-boiled eggs (Optional)

Spices:
  • Orange Peel
  • Cinnamon Stick
  • Cloves
  • Anise Star
  • Cardamom

Seasonings:
  • 3 tablespoon Oyster Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Light Soy Sauce
  • 2 teaspoon Dark Soy Sauce

How to do it:
  1. Wash & cut away nails on the chicken feet.
  2. Marinade with 1 tablespoon of light soy sauce and 1/2 teaspoon dark soy sauce.
  3. Soak mushroom in water till soft, remove stalks.
  4. Drain chicken feet from soy sauce.
  5. Deep fry chicken feet till golden brown. Remove & drain.
  6. Add fried chicken feet, mushroom, spices & hard-boiled eggs (optional) into a pot of boiling water.
  7. Add in the seasonings and let in simmer for 4 hours so till the chicken feet & mushrooms are soft.
  8. You can add more seasonings if you find it too bland.

Note:
You can choose not to use spices and use quail eggs instead of regular chicken eggs.
