This is a regional simmered dish of kyusyu region.
But in these days, it is cooked all over Japan.
Chikuzen-ni is also called "Gameni".
It has rich taste.
Because many vegetables are sauteed and simmered with chicken.
We usually heat a little of oil in a pan.
Put bite size cut chicken pieces , and stir-fry them.
Put vegetables (carrot, lotus root, burdock, taro, shiitake etc.) and konnyaku, and continue to stir-fry them.
Put soy sauce, sake, mirin, sugar, and dashi-soup.
Simmer them with skimming scum that rise the surface.
My wife makes this sometimes - oishi!
ReplyDeleteI do my own version of this meal and we love it. The authentic Jap taste is good but it's hard to attain without the exact same ingredients.
ReplyDeleteI never eat lotus!..and I did not know it was possible to eat it!
