This is a recipe that I found on the net and used last night to make an apparently? Chinese style dish with daikon and chicken. It was quite yummy and I had enough leftover to use in a 弁当 for S, and finished the rest off with the kids for lunch!
大根と鶏肉の中華煮(4人分)
1 Daikon
2 Chicken thighs (I used breasts cause I didn't have any chicken thighs)
1 Carrot
A little bit of chopped ネギ
Flour for coating
Marinade: 2 tablespoons of sake and 4 teaspoons of soy sauce.
Sauce: 4 tablespoons sake
4 teaspoons soy sauce
4 tablespoons oyster sauce
400ml water
Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces and marinate.
Leave for 20 minutes or so, then drain any liquid.
Coat with flour.
Mix up the sauce.
Cut the daikon and carrot into bite size pieces.(乱切り)
Cook the chicken on medium until both sides brown up.
Add the daikon, carrot and sauce.
Cook with the lid on for 25-30 minutes on medium heat, stirring every now and then.
Add some chopped up ネギ when you're nearly finished cooking.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes: The original recipe was only for 2 people so everything you see here is the doubled version. The cooking time for 2 people was 15-20 minutes, but basically the dish is ready when the daikon is cooked through. Also, I only used 3 tablespoons of oyster sauce cause I wasn't sure how the kids would go with it, but as it turns out they ate it all with no problems! They actually seemed to enjoy this dish better than daikon dishes that use dashi.



I would make that if Yasu like daikon.. I suppose i could subsitute potato for it couldn't i? :)
