Bean sprouts chicken (芽菜雞)

ipoh_ngachoikai1

A food guest writer? Who would have thought? When Rasa Malaysia asked me to be a guest writer on her blog to feature a signature dish from my hometown, the answer is loud and clear – the most famous dish from Ipoh has to be Beansprout Chicken (芽菜雞) with Sar Hor Fun (rice noodle).

Now, let’s move over to Rasa Malaysia and check it out!

(Thanks Bee for the invitation!)

    Looks delicious! I’ve been reading Rasa Malaysia for a while now, ever since I found it while researching for my KL and Penang trip in 07. Your post fits her blog style perfectly, top effort!

    Nice score! Ain’t it great to be singled out for such an opportunity? Good work with the article as well :)

    @Forager: It is delicious despite the sprout is not fat and stout like those in ipoh.
    @Howard: Yeah Rasa Malaysia is a great blog, love her recipes and photos. Proud Malaysian! :)
    @Simon: Who who??? But thanks
    @Simon Food Favourites: hehehe… I am no where close. I am more than happy to stick with Malay Chinese’s Har Mee for now.
    @Audrey: I know, the bean sprout is not plump and fat like those in Ipoh, make it, so simple to make!
    @Yas: oh you know me, I need to grow my beads necklace collection before I can have a book published!
    @Jenny: Thanks I use Canon 5DMkII
    @Dominique (de vous à moi…): Thanks for dropping by, and stay a little longer. :)
    @Peter G: Bully?! I ain’t no bully!
    @FFichiban: It is very simple, all down to the technique to cook the chicken I reckon.
