Recipe's preparation

    Chicken
  1. 1. Place Spring Onions, Ginger, coriander and water (from chicken ingredients) into TM Bowl and blend 20 sec/Speed 5. 2. Scrape inside of bowl. blend 30 sec/Speed 5.

    3. Insert 1 tbs mixture in between meat and skin of each thigh.  Leave any remaining mixture in the TM bowl. Place chicken thighs into Varoma (using both top and bottom tray).

     

  2. Cooking the Chicken
  3. 1. Put all marinade ingredients in the TM bowl. Heat 5 mins/90/Spd 2. Pour into a jug.

    2.Place the Varoma with the chicken in it, on top of the TM.

    3. Pour the marinade over the chicken, 1/2 on the bottom tray, 1/2 on the top tray. The water drips down to the TM bowl to create the steaming liquid.

    4. Cook 23 mins/Varoma/Spd 2.

    5.Once cooked, place chicken into the thermoserver.

    6. Pour all liquid (now the sauce) over the chicken, into the thermoserver.

  4. Cooking Rice & Vegetables
  5. 1. Place rice into steamer basket. Rinse well.

    2. Place water (900g) into the TM bowl.

    3. Place steamer basket containing rice into the TM bowl.

    4. Place Varoma on top. Place Bok Choi into Varoma and put lid on. (I only quickly rinse the varoma)

    5. Cook 16 mins/Varoma/Spd 4.

    6. Serve Rice, Chicken, Vegetables together with a couple of spoonfuls of sauce.

Tip

1. If you buy your spring onions, leave 1 cm at the base of the stalks, trim the roots, and plant in soil in the garden. They grow, and when you need more, just trim 1 cm above the base, and they will keep growing- ne need to buy spring onions ever again!!!

 

 

2. If your chicken thighs have bones in them, de-bone before using, and make chicken stock liquid with them.

 

3. Chinese cooking wine is available from chinese stores and large supermarkets in the 'Asian' section.

    Delicious tasty gingery sweet sauce (possibly cut back on sugar a little next time) and good for a no garlic, no chili kitchen. Cooked chicken thigh w skin and bone in 30 min. Broccolini instead of Bok Choy just 5 min steam towards end of rice time. Definite repeater for our HH.👍

    Made this tonight after a friend recommended to me.  Was very good and all enjoyed.  The flavours are great, will make again but probably cut the sugar down to half, bit sweet for me.  thank you tmrc_emoticons.)

    Hi Susan1982. The sauce makes the marinade, which is a little confusing(!) I have tidied it up, so hopefully it will be easier for you to follow. Please make sure you leave a comment and rating after you have cooked it !
