In this video I am going to share with you a Cumin Chicken Recipe.
Cumin coated chicken that is packed with flavors is succulent and delicious. The ground black pepper gives the extra spice on each bite. One bite and you will come back for more.
This is a Traditional Malay dish originated from Malaysia. It is a simple dish prepared in every home using a harmony and balance of spices that turns every mealtime into a marvel.
Happy cooking 😉
Several notes here to share with you:
I use fresh galangal in this recipe. You could use frozen galangal or substitute this with fresh ginger if fresh galangal is not available.
I use palm sugar in this recipe. You could use brown sugar or other types of sugar to substitute this if palm sugar is not available.
Here is a quick rundown of the recipe:
Sprinkle ground white pepper and salt on the chicken wings. Rub and massage the chicken wings together to mix well and set aside.
Dry fry cumin seeds, fennel seeds and the black pepper over MEDIUM heat until they are golden brown. Pound and crush the spice mixture into powder using a mortar and pestle and then set aside. Pound the garlic and galangal into paste using the same mortar and pestle.
Simmer coconut milk in a pan over MEDIUM heat until the oil splits from the coconut milk. Add pounded garlic and galangal and stir fry for 1 minute. Next add the chicken wings and stir fry for 2 minutes. Add the ground spices and stir fry for a further 2 minutes to combine thoroughly. Add plain water and scrape the pan to dissolve any spices sticking on the pan. Bring to boil and cover pan with lid. Simmer for 10 minutes and remove the lid. Add palm sugar and stir to mix well for 1 minute. Continue simmer for another 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and the gravy thickened.
Happy cooking 😉🧡
