Equipment

  • 1 pot with lid (or rice cooker)
  • 1 large non-stick fry pan
  • 1 medium pot or large saucepan
  • Utensils for stirring and flipping
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board

Ingredients
  

Kari Ayam (Malaysian "Chicken" Curry)

“Chicken” rice

  • 1 cup brown rice
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 inch ginger
  • 1/4 brown onion
  • 1 green onion
  • 1 tbsp dried vegetable stock as above

To Garnish

Instructions
 

  • Combine all "chicken" rice ingredients inside a pot and fill with water to the first joint in your finger. Boil then reduce to simmer until no more bubbles, then turn off.
  • Rip tofu into bite sized, irregular pieces. Salt and place in nonstick pan on low heat, flipping frequently until brown (could take up to 1 hour, but you don't need to get it all the way, if you don't want to).
  • Add Kari Ayam paste, brown onion and garlic to a medium pot and dry fry on medium heat until fragrant. Add in the rest of the ingredients on that list, stir, cover and cook until potatoes are tender (approx 20-25 minutes).
  • Serve one bowl of rice with the curry, garnish all with green onion, cilantro and fried onion.
