Hello Anand,
Is it good to use Aji-ni-moto?

Oldposts
3rd December 2004, 12:00 PM
Hello hemant..yes ajinimoto is not good for health.But it adds that sour taste to chinese dishes.Its not good to add it in our everyday dishes.We make chinese dishes rarely at home and i think its ok if we sprinkle just a bit.But its not good to use it like we use salt!Thankyou hemant and punnahai for ur encouragement!:-)

Anand ,can you give me the recipe for making corn soup?

Oldposts
3rd December 2004, 12:00 PM
Thankyou Mrs.Mano.Hello seetha,here's the recipe for sweetcorn chicken soup.

Ingredients:

Chicken : 1/4 Kg
Vinegar : 1 tbl spoon
Green chilli sauce : 1 tbl spoon
Corn flour paste : 2 tbl spoon
Egg : 1[beaten]
garlic : 1 clove [crushed]
sugar : 1 tbl spoon

Method:

Add 1/2 ltr water in a pressure cooker and add the chicken.After steam comes out of the vent,place the whistle and simmer flame.Bring the contents to full pressure.Then let the pressure settle and open the cooker.Take the chicken out and remove the bones.Now add the chicken again to the stock and also the crushed garlic.Boil the contents again in medium flame[no pressure cooking,just with the cooker open without lid]Now you will have the chicken stock.
Now add another half ltr water to the chicken stock and boil.Then add the vinegar,sugar and chilli sauce.When the contents are boiling at medium flame,slowly add the cornfour paste while stirring[dont add corn paste without stirring,else it will form into clumps]Now the soup will thicken.If you want it to be more thick just add another tbl spoon of corn paste.When you get enough consistency,its time to add the beaten egg.Use a tbl spoon which we use for deep frying[jalli karandi] for this.Pour the beaten egg into the soup through the tbl spoon slowly.And stir the soup for another one minute.
Now the soup is ready.Garnish with some shopped onion shoots.Add a tea spoon of sweet corn for a bowl of serving.Also place soya sauce,salt,pepper,chilli-vinegar and tomato sauce in the table.And these things should be added to one's taste.

Hello mini,
I dont know to make tomyam soup.Yes it is thai...But i found a recipe in the net...see if it helpful for you..

Ingredients:

Basic broth:

1 liter1 Chicken stock
1 Tbs. chili paste
Salt, sugar and pepper to taste
1 Tbs. lime juice
1 Tbs. lemon juice
1 Tsp. lemon peel bits
1 Tsp. lime peel bits
2 Tsp. fish sauce
1-2 fresh chili peppers
1 (1 liter equals 4 US or 5 International cups).

Tsp. = one US teaspoon, or one 5 ml spoon.

Tbs. = one US tablespoon or one 15 ml spoon.

Plus, minus and substitute:

substitute fresh (1 stalk, cut) or dried (6 - 8 small pieces) lemon grass for lemon peel
substitute 4 kaffir lime leaves for lime peel
no substitute for fish sauce, but try using a lot of shrimp/fish/anchovies and salt.
substitute (poor) chili powder, or extra peppers.
galanga (1 piece) you really need this, but may be hard to find. No substitutes, but a little powdered ginger may be close.

Add about a cup of cut vegetables and half a cup of shrimp, fish and/or meat (note seafood is much more common). Examples:

cut tomato wedges
baby corn
shallots
mushrooms
parsley
others in season

Directions:

1. Bring chicken stock to a boil.

2. Add leaves, grass and/or peel bits, galanga and most vegetables (except tomatoes, if used). Boil for 3 - 5 minutes.

3. Add seafood and tomatoes (if used). Boil until the shrimp is pink and the fish is cooked.

4. Add the last ingredients (chili paste and peppers, juices). Stir.

5. Pour into a big soup tureen, and serve.


-------------
Green chilli sauce is available readymade in bottles.

Curious to know, why does the chicken need to be boiled in the Chinese Chicken recipe.

Oldposts
3rd December 2004, 12:00 PM
Hello funcook,
Its hygenic to boil and the chicken will also be much tender.If you prefer,no need to boil in water,the chicken can be deep fried after marinated in flour and egg.

I think if the chicken is boiled and then fried,less oil is used up and less cooking gas too ,since it is already cooked,so only a crispy appearance is needed now.

Thank you devi and kavita for your compliments!Sorry i couldnt post the recipes promptly since i hardly find time to logon.I will try to drop in regularly.

Here is the recipe for chicken fried rice.

CHICKEN FRIED RICE

Cook 250 gms of rice.This should not be too tender like the normal cooked rice.Cook the rice as if it retains its stiffness.Once the rice is cooked,it should be spread on a tray or any other flat container and let to cool down.Hot rice should not be used for stir frying since it will start forming into lumps and the texture of fried rice will not be good.

Ingredients:

1.boiled chicken[boneless] : 100 gms[shredded]
2.capsicum,carrot,beans,cabbage
and onion... : Slice all these vegetables into thin long pieces and mix them well.The mixed vegetables should make about 100 grams.
3.egg : one [beaten]
4.ajinomoto :one pinch
5.salt : to taste
6.soyasauce : few drops and dilute with one teaspoon water.
7.pepper : half teaspoon

Heat two teaspoons of oil in a wok and add the vegetables and stir fry in high heat for a minute.[do not overcook the vegetables]and add the beaten egg.When the egg thickens,stir fry it and add the rice.Add the boiled chicken.Stir all the contents well and add salt and ajinomoto.sprinkle the diluted soya sauce over the rice and stir well.And add the pepper.All the stir cooking will approximately take from five to seven minutes.Garnish with chopped onion shoots and serve hot.

For shrimp fried rice,add boiled shrimp instead of chicken.

Also, you could use the water from boiling the chicken to cook the rice. It adds a very nice flavour to the rice.

Oldposts

Yes sharm...u are right...the left over water of the boiled chicken will add an excellent flavour if rice is cooked in it.

Oldposts
3rd December 2004, 12:00 PM
Sakshi, I think you added "Corn meal". Please use "Corn starch" for thickening purposes. In the US supermarkets, you can get corn starch in the baking aisle. Indian recipes generally refer to this thickening agent as corn flour (which is misread by people who haven't used corn starch before).

Hope this helps.

Hi Sakshi,
I got this recipe from the net. Hope this will help you. Let me know if you got them thick enough. And check the label of the corn flour pack, whether it can be used for thickening soups and gravies. Good Luck!

Hi meena...BUN TAU is a vietnamese vermicelli...Iam pasting here some info about that which i found in a website..
These slender, gelatinous noodles are widely used throughout China and Southeast Asia. They're made from mung beans and almost flavorless, though they readily absorb other flavors. They're commonly used in soups, stir-fries, salads, desserts, and even drinks. Before using, soak them in hot water until they're soft and transparent (about 15 minutes), then add them to boiling water and cook them for no more than a minute. Rinse them in cold water and drain. The dried noodles can also be deep fried to make a crunchy garnish or bed for sauces.
