Hainan Chicken Rice (Nasi Ayam Hainan)

When I was working in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, almost once a week I have had this dish for lunch at food court in Wisma BCA, Sudirman. This dish is one of my favorite Chinese foods.
I like this dish because it made with a lot of herb such as ginger and garlic.
This dish is perfect for the Winter.
I also have heard from my co-worker, who is from China, that this dish is perfect to soothe the flu.

I finally found a right recipe for this dish and made a perfect dish.
I made once a long time ago but I didn't happy with the result. It didn't taste right.
One day, I was craving for this dish and browsing through the Internet. I was optimist that this dish would come out with a perfect taste. Yeah! I was right!
This dish come delicious. When I made a comparison with my previous recipe, this recipe was a lot easier and used less ingredients. Hmm.. I didn't know why, but right now, I was so happy because I was able to make this dish and came out perfect.

I almost forgot to tell you that I need 40 minutes from preparation until ready to serve. :D
Well, probably you can make this dish less that 40 minutes. When I cooked this dish, I could study and or do the house chores.
I believe, you may want to try to cook it because it was convenience and easy to prepare it.
I let you know that I am not a type of person that enjoys to stand up in front of stove while I am cooking. No way!! :P

As usual, I always made some adjustment from the original source, such as: I didn't saute the ingredients for soup but the taste was much better, and added more garlic and green onion.

Please don't hesitate to drop me any comments or questions regarding this recipe, I need it to improve my cooking in the future. Thank you!:D
