Thank you! Sorta, I reduced the sauce quite a bit so it's saucy but not that saucy.

Didn't follow any in particular, I usually wing it after watching a few videos. For this dish I used Chinese 5 spice powder.

Ingredients

  • Chicken
  • 4-5 cloves of garlic
  • 5 spice powder
  • Chopped Mushrooms
  • Chopped Onions
  • Fish sauce
  • Oyster sauce
  • Sugar
  • Star anise and cinnamon sticks

Recipe

  • Marinade the chicken with soy sauce
  • Fry the chicken, chop them into medium sized pieces or whatever size you prefer. Add chopped onions, mushrooms and garlic and saute them along with the chicken. Let the chicken brown on both sides. Let the onions brown and shrink
  • Add 1 to 2 tbsp fish sauce and 1 to 2 tbsp of oyster sauce and stir well
  • Add water into the pan until it covers the chicken three quarters of the way.
  • Add star anise, cinnamon sticks and the 5 spice powder. Also add half or one tbsp sugar. Depending on how sweet you want. You can always adjust this later.
  • Lower the heat and let everything boil for 30 min with a lid.
  • Taste the sauce and add salt to taste
  • High flame again and reduce the sauce
  • Add 1 tsp corn starch slurry to thicken it up if you like.

I think that's about it! Enjoy :)

Nothing in particular, i just watched a couple of videos on YouTube and put everything together

But here's what I did

Ingredients

  • 6 to 8 cloves of garlic
  • 4 red chillies
  • holy basil leaves (you can use Basil too but remember to ask a priest to sprinkle some holy water...lol)
  • minced pork
  • fish sauce
  • oyster sauce
  • soy sauce

Preperation

  • grind the garlic and chillies into a paste, or just smash them well.
  • heat up a pan, add 2tbsp oil and add the paste, stir well.
  • add the minced pork and stir it around until it looks cooked.
  • add fish sauce, oyster sauce and soy sauce. I don't usually measure this but add 1 tbsp each and adjust as you go and stir well. Be careful with the soy and fish sauce tho because the dish could end up very salty.
  • add the holy basil and stir for a couple minutes and shit of the heat.
