Chicken Wings & Yam (ref. Collagen - February 9th 2009)


Serve 3 persons

Ingredients:
6 chicken wings
800 taro roots*
salt to wash taro roots 1 tbsp
1/2 tbsp of salad oil
3 tbsp of sake



For soup mixture:
400 ml of soup stock (chicken or fish stock)
1 tbsp of sugar
2 tbsp of mirin
3 tbsp of soy sauce

For measurement of tbsp & tsp, please check Important Measurement
For those with sensitive skin, please wash you hands after touching/peeling taro roots*, as the slimy substance can cause minor skin rash/itchiness.

How to make:
1. Prepare soup mixture in a separate pot and put it aside.  
2. Peel the taro roots* and wash it with salt in order to get rid of slimy substance attached.
3. Put oil in the frying pan and get it ready to fry the chicken wings
4. Pour chicken wings and clean taro roots* into the soup mixture in the pot
5. Cook with medium fire until it boils for a few minutes, then continue cooking with low fire for another 20 -25 minutes.

Check to make sure that the taro roots* is soft enough and when the liquid runs out, you need to turn off the fire.   

I hope you enjoy another variation of chicken wings recipe - happy cooking is healthy cooking!

*Thanks for the inputs!

  1. I believe those are taro roots (indonesian:talas) in the 2nd picture not yam (indonesian: ubi), :)

  2. Thank you for the inputs. Yes! you are right that Talas = sato imo (2nd photo) = taro roots, definitely not Yam.

    :D I am really glad someone is reading my recipe and help me correct my poor terminology.
