Sweet Fish Sauce

Method

Battered Chicken Nuggets

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Add Water

    Gradually add cold water to the dry ingredients, whisking until you achieve a smooth batter.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  5. 5

    Fry the Nuggets

    Dip each chicken piece into the batter and carefully place it into the hot oil. Fry in batches for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain the Nuggets

    Remove the fried chicken nuggets and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Steamed Rice

  1. 7

    Rinse the Rice

    Rinse the long-grain rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

  2. 8

    Cook the Rice

    In a pot, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to low heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

  3. 9

    Fluff the Rice

    Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Raw Veggies

  1. 10

    Prepare the Veggies

    Wash and peel the carrots. Cut them into sticks. Slice the cucumber and bell pepper into thin strips.

  2. 11

    Arrange the Raw Veggies

    Place the prepared raw veggies on a serving platter.

Prawn Crackers

  1. 12

    Serve the Prawn Crackers

    Open the pack of prawn crackers and place them in a bowl for serving.

Sweet Fish Sauce

  1. 13

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine fish sauce, sugar, lime juice, and chili flakes. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 14

    Serve the Sauce

    Transfer the sweet fish sauce to a small serving dish.
