Children's Day (Singapore)

Leftover Chicken Rice

Ever since I heard about chicken rice in Singapore I've been looking for an excuse to make it. I found this very easy to follow recipe with giant pictures. We more or less followed it, except I used a different recipe for hot sauce which is as follows:

Mix together 2 to 3 tbsp freshly squeezed lime or lemon juice, 5 tbsp finely chopped fresh red chilies, 5 cloves garlic, chopped, 3 tbsp finely chopped ginger, 1 tsp fine salt, 1/2 cup boiling hot chicken soup


Aside from not realizing that a lot of water was going to come out when I tried to cut the chicken up this went really well. I must confess this dish was really amazingly good. Easily one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. Truly, if this is the kind of thing kids get to eat all the time in Singapore then they don't just need one day to celebrate.
