Bismillah...
The movement restriction made me stay at home like never before hahaha Thus I had more time to try out new recipes this Ramadhan. Some friends were saying, "Rajinnya ko!". But close friends already know I cook during my free time so there's no surprise to my many cooking experiments.
This ayam percik recipe is from khairulaming IG, his 30 hari 30 resipi on Day 18. I tried making ayam percik before with a more complicated recipe and to my surprise this simple recipe of khairulaming's produced the same taste as that one! So here goes...
Blend the following together
3 Lemongrass
Thumb sized ginger
5 gloves garlic
2 onions (I actually used Holland onion because I only have those in my kitchen lol)
2 tbsp tamarind paste
1/2 tbsp chili powder (Mine was oxidized and turned all brownish. Luckily I noticed it before pouring it into the jar with the other ingredients. I replaced it with my homemade chili paste)
Separate the perfect blend into 2 equal parts
One part is used to marinate the chicken that's already been mixed with sugar and salt. Leave the marinate for at least 1 hour. I left it for 4 hours hahaha because I went to work before break fast.
The other half of the blend is used to make the gravy by cooking it with coconut milk, sugar and salt. And finally put 1 tbsp of rice flour that has been mixed with water to make the gravy a thick finish
Grill the chicken like this.. I frequently pour the marinate on the grill pan to avoid the grill from drying out. And then when the chicken is about to cook, pour the gravy on the chicken and let it cook for a little while.
I find my dad's grill pan quite annoying lol after I finished making this ayam percik, I ordered a double-sided grill pan on shopee and currently still waiting for the delivery hehehe I think my dad will be pleased with my purchase although it was initially out of my annoyance towards his grill pan :p
