Method:
步骤

1. Put chicken meat in a bowl, add in (A), mix well and let marinate for 30 minutes. 
鸡肉加入腌料，拌均，腌至少30分钟。

2. Turn on Ninja Foodi, select <SAUTE/SEAR> mode.  The Ninja Foodi that I'm using is a combination of a pressure cooker and air fryer in one appliance. Besides pressure cooking and air frying, there are other functions such as steam, slow cook, sear/ saute, bake/ roast, grill, dehydrate, sous vide, yoghurt, and keep warm. This cooker helps prepare quick meals without hassle, which I highly recommend to everyone who loves easy and hassle-free cooking with fewer pots and pans to wash. If you're interested, you can use our exclusive discount code to buy at the best market rate. I've attached the details and links below for easy reference.

3. Heat some oil in the inner pot, add in shallot, cook until fragrant. Add in potatoes and chicken meat. 
烧热少许油，爆香小葱头。加入鸡肉和马铃薯，炒香。

Other than using it in pastries and bread,
I used it to make curry-baked rice. It's non-spicy,
even the kids would enjoy this delicious curry rice dish. 

4. Add in curry paste, coconut milk, and water. Reset <PRESSURE COOK> mode, pressure cook on high for 3 mins. When it's done, release the pressure, reset <SAUTE/SEAR> mode, simmer to thicken the sauce. Served with rice on its own or use as fillings for pastry, steamed bun, bread, curry puffs, baked rice, and many more. This recipe yields a small portion as shown in the picture at the top of this post, feel free to increase the amount.
加入咖喱酱，椰浆和水。高压煮3分钟，然后煮至收汁，即可。这马铃薯鸡肉干咖喱很香，味道不会辣，小朋友都可以吃。可以配饭或用来做包点的馅料。若喜欢我的食谱，可以LIKE和追随我的面书专页，不要错过最新食谱发布。

Crispy Spiced Fish Finger 香脆鱼柳

Homemade fish fingers aka fish sticks have more fish, more flavour and more crunch than shop bought. Usually served as side dish or finger food. My homemade recipe can be done in three ways - air-fried, pan-fried/ deep fried or oven baked. 

Well, finger food is always a winner with kids. I started making fish finger for my boy when he was a toddler. I started with a basic one with just simple seasoning. You may check out the details here >> Basic Crispy Fish Finger recipe  (<< tap the link to view recipe).

This time, I used frozen fish instead of fresh fish fillet. And so, I have added some natural spices to enhance the flavour. I have got some NOMU spices, the spices from South Africa. As usual, when I select ingredients, I would read the label to make sure there's no added MSG and artificial additives, these NOMU spices met my requirements. :) 

中文食谱：请在网页的右边点击Translate，然后选择中文翻译或 点击进入 》中文食谱 》

Ingredients:
(Yield 2-3 servings)

170g Fish Fillet (Cut into 1 inch stripes) 

(A)

*NOMU Sea Salt, add to taste  

*NOMU Rainbow Pepper/ Black Pepper, add to taste

*NOMU One For All Seasoning, add to taste

1/8 tsp Garlic Powder  

1/4 tsp Olive Oil


(B)

50g Bread Crumbs/ Japanese Panko

1 tsp NOMU Poultry Rub*

A dash of Curry Powder 

A dash of Ground Turmeric

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Method:

1. Dry fish fillet with kitchen towel. Add in (A), coat well and let marinate for 15 minutes. 

Love this NOMU ONE FOR ALL seasoning.
It's so aromatic, you can simply add this into any dishes.

2. Dust the fillet with some flour.

3. Dip fish fillet into the egg until it's completely covered with egg.

4. Add all ingredients (B) in a bowl, mix well.

This is NOMU Poultry Rub.
Besides roast chicken/ ribs, this Poultry Rub can be added in bread crumbs to enhance the flavour.
It's well blended, so convenient to use. 

5. Dip fish fillet into bread crumbs mixture until it's completely covered with bread crumbs.

Air-fry Method:

1. Grease fryer's pan with olive oil. Place fillet and gently press to flatten. Repeat same steps for all the fillet.

2. Spray a little olive oil on the fillet.

3. Air fry for 8 minutes.

Pan-fry Method: 

1.  Heat oil in a frying pan. Add in the fillet and cook 2-3 minutes on each side or until cook through, golden and crisp.

*Do not over-cooked the fillet to remain the moist in the fillet.

Oven Baked Method: 

1. Preheat oven 180'C, bake for 15-18 minutes.

Crab Meat Egg Drop Soup 蟹肉蛋花汤

Egg drop soup is a Chinese soup of wispy beaten eggs in boiled broth. Condiments such as peas, corns, seafood or meat are optional, but commonly added to the soup for greater flavour. 

Whenever I brought my kid to the wet market, he would "drag" me to the fish stall to buy seafood. Happened in June holiday when the boy accompanied me to the market, he spotted flower crab and told me to cook crab meat soup for him. Well, this is something that I would never include in my school holiday menu because I don't want to spare so much time in the kitchen removing flesh from the shell. But, he insisted and promised he would wait patiently for the delicious crab meat egg drop soup. And so, I have cooked this and the boy loved it so much!
