I learned this recipe from my senior ( well actually it's hard to learn from him because you can only watch him cooking but never try to question his action cuz he will answering with his senduk..huhuu) he's from negeri sembilan and i guess that you know that this state is well known with it's lemak cili padi...slrrrppp! =P
So the story begins...this recipe is a extremely simple but it takes a bit longer time to cook it ( well as it sounds 'rendang')...but believe me that the result will be totally awesome!! So below is the list of ingreadients needed to make this dish:
- 1 whole chicken ( agained skinned off and cut into small pieces)
- 3 lemongrass
- 25 bird chillies ( cili padi)
- 1/2 tablespoon of tumeric powder
- 1/2 tablespoon of chilli powder
- 1 tin of coconut milk
- salt to taste
So here we go!! First and for most blend the lemongrass with bird chillies until its got a fine texture. Then put the blended ingredients on the chicken and add salt, tumeric and chilli powder as well. Mix them well by using your hand so that there is no part of the chicken which is not covered with the paste. Marinate them for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the coconut milk in pan until the coconut milk become a bit thick ( stir it continously to make sure that it doesn't pecah minyak)...after 20 minutes saute the chicken in a pan until there is no water come out from the chicken ( this shows that the chicken is half cooked)..then transfer the thick coconut milk that has been heated before into that chicken pan...and keep stirring as we did while cooking normal rendang until the gravy become thick and a bit dry..add salt to taste then...taaraaaa!!! our rendang kering now is ready to be served with plain rice...! Happy to try it! (^_^)v
