yummy...
singaporean who are abroad for some time is bound to miss one singapore food or another... and of cos, most of u guys know that i am crazy over chicken/duck rice... hehe...
so when sanz came over to japan, she brought over some yummy treats like chicken rice (hainanese and soya sauce), laksa, curry chicken rice, mee pok tah, bee hoon teng, etc.
wahhh... how to bring all these and sit on plane? simple... they were all instant food.
ok guess you guys in singapore, after being exposed to this for so long, shouldnt be surprised liao.. but for ppl like me... damn excited after hearing about such "new advancements" in instant food can? and to finally taste it.. wow... ambrosia!
the first one that i tried, back in august, was this...
dunno what brand... but soya sauce chicken rice..
although i heard many positive feedbacks regarding the quality of these instant fixes, still didnt expect them to be any much good...
anyways... shall continue..
after ripping off the packing, these are whats in the inside...
portions looked kinda small, but got chilli!! steady.
the instructions on preparing the chilli was to soak either in hot water for 1 min, or in warm water for 3... but i didnt brink any recepticle, and lazy to walk back to my room, so i just heated it up like this...
under flowing hot water... anyway water's free ;p
yup left it there like that for the 4-5 minutes that i let the chicken rice undergo in the microwave... ;p
the foil was susposed to pop up but cant see clearly...
anyway while microwaving, can already smell the nice aroma of chicken rice... slurrrpp...
afterwhich, its just peel-and-ready-to-serve.
tadah...
(pls focus on the dish on not my messy table... ;p)
it smelled good, looked good, the only gribe was still the portion size...
i took the first scoop and.... it was great!! almost like the real thing! the chicken is tender, the sauce is good, the rice, well a little grainy, the chilli is nice too!
rice a little grainy but still nice taste.
chicken was surprisingly tender and juicy... almost fooled by it - thot it was fresh chicken!
amazingly, can keep this instant fix for almost 1 year in freezer... wow... i am impressed...
i give this soya sauce chicken a 7/10... might have been higher if not for the measly helping... ;p it's really great!
on another ocassion, i tried the dodo fishball mee pok tah... i think this should be more popular among singaporeans bah...
dodo mee pok tah...
like the chicken rice... it tasted great! but the fishball texture can be improved upon... no need to drive down for midnite mee poks at coffeeshops any longer!
