“This quick and easy recipe is a great midweek meal to whip up in minutes, it can be eaten on it’s own as it is balanced with protein, vegetables and carbs, or have it as an accompaniment to any of your favourite Asian dishes. The chicken rice paste add a nice hint of savoury ginger aroma to the finish.
This dish works best cooked in a wok with high heat for that true authentic taste but works great in a normal flat pan too. Be sure not to overfill your pan and keep the heat high so that the food doesn’t go soggy.” – @makanmalaysiauk
