SECRET CHICKEN RICE RECIPE, REVEALED!!

shamelessly patting my back with this one heheh

folks….. I think we may have CRACKED the code to probably the BEST homemade Hainanese Chicken Rice in the heartlands. don’t take our word for it, the retired chef uncle that we cooked for approved one..

now, we’re pretty sure there’s a whole chicken rice fanbase on our Substack, so we really wanted to share this well-guarded recipe with you guys. while simple in essence, this recipe was a culmination of recipes & techniques I learnt from friends & several home cooks that I got the chance of cooking with throughout my career.

while the cooking steps for this tend to be quite technical & precise, you could trust me that the ending results would be worth every single bite. also, we’re warning you beforehand that the aroma of rice while being cooked would make you instantly close your eyes into sensory hypnotism.

try this recipe out & then share with us your thoughts on the cooking process in the comments below!

notes:

• using fresh chilled chicken vs frozen chicken makes a whole world of difference. frozen chicken tends to have a gamey, ‘refrigerator’ flavour which is very noticeable in poached chicken.

• chicken fat is rarely found in supermarkets in Singapore. however, most wet market chicken vendors in the country put aside batches of chicken skin with fat attached and are usually inexpensive.

• if you fancy, you could add vegetables like cabbage, carrot or kailan into the chicken soup to fortify it even further.
