Foodi Hack: Chicken Rice + 2 dish


Thinking of making more us for my tingkat trays so instead of cooking chicken rice in the pot, I decided to make use of the tray so I can make more dishes out of it! 

Decided on making some assam stingray for myself and add on a longbean dish for everyone! ❤️ The recipes are all very simpl homecooked dishes and since only using ‘steaming with the pressurecook mode’ everything is simplified. 


First time trying vegetables dish on pressure cook mode. Thinking that longbeans need to be softer therefore first trial was to try adding it as 1 of the dish for the tingkat method! Surprisingly they are soft and crunchy inside!! Its cooked well! And managed to soaked in the sauce I put in earlier to steam it with! πŸ‘πŸ»


The stingray and shrimps is nicely steam and gravy compliment rice so well! Too bad I am on low/no carbs diet, I tried to control myself from having rice πŸ˜‰


The only flaw was the rice and chicken as the chicken leg covered the rice too much thus the rice wasnt cooked that well in the middle. Probably would be better if I had used boneless chicken leg. 2 would be nicely on top of the rice giving it enough place to steam and also cook the rice. I ended up steaming the chicken another 5 mins and then steaming the rice another 10mins. Phew πŸ˜…


The sauces to make are also simple and straightforward to enhance the flavours of the dishes. Do give it a try and let me
know.

2) Wash 2 cups of rice and put 1:1 ratio rice to water, place chicken leg, pandan leaves, garlic and ginger on top. (Use the deeper dish for this) 
3) Wash and cut stingray into smaller cubes and put it in the tray. Arrange shrimps, tomato and ginger then pour assam sauce over. 
4) Wash and prepare longbeans then place in last tray. Layer prawns neatly on top. Drizzle sauce over long beans.
