Delicious Sticky Chicken

Assalamualaikum, hi guys :) So here is a recipe on how to make a good chicken recipe cook using air fryer or oven. It is so good that one piece of chicken is not enough! 😄😄😄

I made this recipe by improvising my sister's recipe. I will post her recipe soon. I'm sorry that I don't have the picture of the chicken because as soon as it gets to the table everyone took theirs and they loved it! :) 

What you need: 
8 pieces of chicken (I used drumstick as I ran out of wings)
1 tablespoon of ABC sauce
1 tablespoon of BBQ sauce
1 tablespoon of HP sauce
1 tablespoon of honey
1 tablespoon of sweet soy sauce
1 tablespoon of oyster sauce
1 teaspoon of fine white pepper
1 teaspoon of fine black pepper
1 teaspoon of all purpose
3 cloves of garlic (minced)

So just combine everything and mix it in a bowl. Then air-fried it for 40 minutes or so. Like 20 minutes on each side on 180 degrees celcius. If you are using an oven it is also the same but keep an eye on the temperature or else the chicken will turn out burn but uncooked. Goodluck! Bon apetit! 

Btw this is the tablespoon I used :

Vegetarian Bake Pasta


So lately I've been taking care both of my grandmother and learn a few tips and tricks of preparing food for them especially if they're unwell or orang Melayu kata takde selera, no appetite to eat. I discover that if I cook chicken soup, porridge and something mushy at-least that will help them regain their energy. So from this I tried to experiment with a new recipe that is this Vegetarian Bake Pasta. You will need simple things as listed below.

Chop:
2 red bird's eye chilli
2 green bird's eye chilli
2 small red onion (bawang merah halus)
1 big bombay onion
1 inch ginger
3 big cloves of garlic (3 ulas bawang putih)

Boil and blend:
1 cauliflower
2 carrots
3 potatoes

Additional ingredients:
1 packet of fusilli (you can also use macaroni or any pasta that you like)
 white sauce
grated orange cheddar cheese
1 chicken/vegetable cube
white pepper
coarse black pepper
salt

dried tomatoes


Steps:

1- First things first boil the pasta as usual with a little bit of salt and oil for 10 minutes or according to the instructions given on the pack.

2- While waiting for the pasta, prepare the chopped ingredients.

3- Then boil the cauliflower, carrots and potatoes. You can also opt for other vegetables such as broccoli and mushroom or anything vegetables that is suitable to your tastebud. Once the vegetables are cooked drained them and blend it using a food processor or a blender. Set it aside.

4- Now drain your pasta. Then saute all the chop ingredients using planta or any type of oil. To be healthy you can use olive oil. Remember to saute the onions first and lastly the garlic because garlic is easily to burn. Then add a ladle of water and the chicken cube. Stir well. Then add the salt, white pepper, coarse black pepper and all purpose. The amount is up to you. 

5- Add your pasta and combine into the saute ingredients. Mix well. Turn off the heat. Set aside.

6- Prepare your white sauce

7. So now your pasta, white sauce and vegetable paste is ready so its time to assemble. First you need to butter up your casserole pot. Then add a thin layer of the vegetable pasta accompanied by the pasta mix then the vegetable pasta again and pasta mix again and so on. Continue layering until you have an inch left to fit in the white sauce. So now all you need is to finely chopped your dried tomatoes then pour your white sauce on top. Spread the white sauce evenly. Sprinkle the orange cheddar. 

8- Bake the casserole for 30 minutes under 180 degrees celcius. That's it! It is so simple and trust me everyone will love it! They will never notice the vegetables inside! So if your kids don't like veggies this recipe is surely a must try :)

note that I put chicken meat in my casserole because I love chicken :)
