鸡拌小黄瓜

这是一道凉拌佳肴, quite sophisticated, 一笑. It takes a little time to prepare but you are gonna to love it.
I did it again tonight but before I remember to take a picture, they are all gone downstairs. :-) Will try
to remember taking a picture next time. Or maybe you would like to try it and post a picture. That would be
great.

材料:

鸡腿 1只, 小黄瓜 2条, 小红萝卜1个(radish), 八角1粒, 花椒, 红椒, 葱, 蒜, 姜适量.

调味料:

酱油, 酱油膏(或老抽), 醋, 料酒, 麻油, 红油, 糖.

做法:

1. 小黄瓜洗净, 用刀拍扁,去心, 切成小段. 小红萝卜切片与小黄瓜一起加盐淹一下. 用清水洗净装盘备用.

2. 鸡腿(not only the drumstick but the whole leg)洗净抹干, 加酱油略为淹一下以使鸡腿表面都沾上酱油.

3. 把淹好的鸡腿放入热油锅中炸至金黄, 大概三,四分钟(这叫炸上色), 捞出放入盘中.

加入葱段, 姜片, 八角, 花椒, 料酒, 酱油. 入蒸锅蒸约40分钟.

4. 把蒸好的鸡肉撕成小条段, 放在装小黄瓜的盘中备用.

5. 淋上凉拌汁就可享用. 非常的香滑可口.

凉拌汁:

加酱油, 酱油膏, 醋, 麻油, 红油, 糖, 葱, 蒜, 姜末于一小碗. 再加一汤匙的蒸鸡汁. 调匀成凉拌汁.
这些调味料可因个人喜好调配. 吾用酱油一汤匙, 酱油膏半汤匙, 醋一茶匙, 麻油半茶匙, 几滴红油,
糖一茶匙, 再加红椒, 葱, 蒜, 姜末而成.
