I usually cook something simple on Saturdays. No rice, soup and a few side dishes. Just one dish to settle dinner because I do major cleaning on Saturday.
I don't want to spend time washing and cleaning the pots, pans and dishes. Plus, the stove will be throughly cleaned too so, yeah, I wouldn't want to clean it again. :P
This is one of the family's favourite Saturday dinners. It's similar to this dish except no spice is used here and it's much simpler.
Ingredients:
- 10 mid joint wings
- 20 fresh Shitake mushrooms, sliced
- 4 Hard boiled eggs
- 1.5 litre Water or Chicken broth
- Salt to taste
- Instant Noodle or Fresh Wanton Noodle
Seasonings:
- 1 tablespoon Oyster Sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dark Soy Sauce
How to do it:

Amei79,
LOL Sorry my blog made you hungry.
I'm using instant noodles here so it's easily to handle. So this is good for you? ;)
I'm feeling hungry now and I think I will be cooking noodles after this :p
ReplyDeleteElaine, not sure if you know they do sell instant noodles without the seasoning too at the supermarket. I usually buy that :)
Wow.. i love this i love this.. esp the braised chicken and mushroom.. thanks for sharing the recipe... :p
ReplyDeleteLZmommy,
ReplyDeleteHaha ...
Yes, I know about those instant noodles without seasonings. Instant noodles with seasonings are on stand-by for 'owls' (me & hubby) when we get hungry late at night. hehe ...
Ellena,
You are welcome.
hello,
ReplyDeletei have been an avid reader of your blog which always have such good and simple recipe.
i tried making this yesterday (as per the recipe) but it turned out bland and the eggs, mushrooms and chickens did not turn out as 'black' ... seems like there isn't enough seasonings or the water is too much.
can you enlighten me on this?
thanks!
Min,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your support.
Did you use chicken broth or water. It will make a difference. The 'darkness' will depends on the type of dark soy sauce you use.
If you prefer a darker colour, simmer it longer. And only add more seasoning at the end if you find it bland cos it will be more 'salty' the longer to simmer.
Hope this helps.
Hi, I tried this recipe today. Instead of 1.5litres of water, I used only 500ml and the seasoning I used 1 heaped tbsp oyster sauce and 3 tsp dark soya sauce. 3 big chicken wings instead of 10 mid joints. Tau kua and tau pok instead of mushrooms. My dish colour is not as dark as yours. Could it be due to the mushrooms? btw thanks for your very comprehensive steps. I also tried the colourful tamago but results.. hehehe far far from yours :)
